Hi, I'm Julie Mendizabal, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida. I'm bilingual and offer therapy in both English and Spanish (ofrezco terapia en español).

I specialize in helping individuals and couples feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship struggles, or a life transition that's left you unsteady, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore what's happening and find lasting change. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you're already carrying so much — so if you're feeling uncertain, stuck, or simply know that something needs to change, you're not alone, and you don't have to face it on your own.

Therapist

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel vulnerable, and I want you to know that you've landed somewhere safe. I'm a licensed therapist with three years of experience working with adults, and I specialize in trauma, anxiety, life transitions and self-worth.

I'm trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an evidence-based approach for processing trauma and the experiences that continue to shape how we feel about ourselves and the world. I approach every client through a trauma-informed lens, which means I understand that what you're dealing with today often has roots that go deeper than the surface — and I'll meet you wherever you are in that process.
