I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing telehealth services throughout Washington. My passion is helping people live life to their fullest potential by creating a safe, supportive space where they feel heard and respected. Before becoming a nurse practitioner, I worked as a registered nurse in a variety of clinical settings, experiences that strengthened my compassion and deepened my understanding of the unique challenges people face. I would describe my approach as empathetic, collaborative, and evidence-based.
Hello. My name is Julie and I am a licensed mental health counselor. In addition to working in WA state in a clinic setting, I have spent five years in Singapore working as a social/emotional counselor in a large international high school. In that role, I supported students and families from over 75 countries in the world. That helps me to view counseling from an inclusive and culturally sensitive space. I now make my home in the beautiful PNW and am excited to ground my practice here.
As your therapist, I bring several years of experience supporting individuals and families through crisis, healing, and transformation. My background spans emergency departments, inpatient care, child welfare, hospice, and community mental health—each setting has shaped my trauma-informed, solution-focused, and client-centered approach.
It's not easy starting therapy and investing time in yourself, but you've already done the first step! My experience has primarily been focused in clients with eating disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. With that said, I also have extensive experience working with relationship challenges, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidality. I generally like to pull from my knowledge of various therapy modalities such as DBT, CBT, FBT and EFFT. I also really enjoy self-compassion work. Your goals are always my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
Outside of work, I enjoy live music, spending time with friends, and hanging out with my dogs, Nala and Toni. These personal interests help me stay grounded and bring balance to my life, which I believe is crucial for overall well-being.
If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to help you navigate your journey towards healing and growth. Let's work together to achieve your goals!

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lacey
Searching for therapists in Lacey starts with finding someone whose background fits the support you want. Therapists can help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for therapists whose listed specialties, training, and therapy approach match your needs. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that may fit what you are looking for.
In a smaller city like Lacey, local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while keeping your search focused on therapists licensed in Washington. Consider practical factors like appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, what they focus on, and what a first session may be like.
Therapy in Lacey can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, see estimated out-of-pocket costs after adding your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.
