Hi, I’m Julia, and I’m passionate about helping people find strength, clarity, and balance in their lives. I’ve been working in the field for over twenty years, with experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, seniors, and parents through life’s many transitions. I’m a graduate of Columbia University, where I focused on working with children and families. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside clients from many different backgrounds as they work through both everyday stress and life’s biggest challenges.
I believe the structure of the therapeutic relationship can help people access their inner strengths and promote meaningful change. Therapy gives us space to pause, reflect, and make sense of how the different parts of our lives — our relationships, health, identity, and environment — impact our well-being. Together, we’ll sort through challenges, set realistic goals, and develop strategies that help you feel more grounded and empowered.
My path to psychotherapy is anything but conventional. I began my career as a scientist and then a high school science teacher, where a deep curiosity about the world took root. But it was the human connection, the conversations, the stories, that truly lit me up. That led me to Columbia University, where I earned my Master's in Social Work and gained invaluable clinical experience at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. After graduation, I worked in hospice care, walking alongside families through some of life's most profound and challenging moments, an experience that gave me a deep respect for human resilience and the power of being truly heard. After welcoming my three children, I took everything I had learned and channelled it into opening my own private practice. Today, that is where my heart lives. I am endlessly inspired by the people I get to meet, the life stories they share, and the privilege of watching them grow. Whatever has brought you here, I would love to hear your story too.
Hello and welcome! I have been assisting clients with navigating some of the most difficult stages of life. I have provided services with clients between the ages of 4 and 96. I specialize in aging, grief/loss and life transitions.
Welcome!
Navigating the path to healing can feel daunting, especially for marginalized individuals facing systemic barriers. My mission is to honor and empower your strength and vulnerability as you seek support. Together, we'll create a safe space where you can share your story authentically, free from judgment or criticism. I integrate cultural, racial, and ethnic understanding into our sessions to ensure your unique experiences are respected and validated.
I am ready to listen and to help you in any way I can. I have helped many people reduce anxiety and depression and I would like to help you as well. I have worked with college students, new moms, men, people dealing with work/life balance, grief and loss and older adults who are going through various issues such as struggles with their adult children and health issues. Let's turn some of those tears into laughter. Let's talk.
I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard and respected. Then, I work alongside you to help you make sense of what you're experiencing and what you want to change.
I work with adults and adolescents, and I tailor my approach to fit where you are right now, not a template of where you're supposed to be.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Teaneck, NJ
Searching for therapists in Teaneck starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. Their profile can show whether they use methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other approaches that may fit what you want from therapy.
Teaneck is a smaller city, so nearby in-person options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your search across New Jersey while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, areas of focus, and what a first session may look like.
Therapy in Teaneck can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, compare profiles, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
