How I Can Help

We all develop patterns—ways of thinking, feeling, and coping—that once served a purpose.

​

Over time, they become constraints.

 

My background in addiction provides a clear lens into how the brain forms habits, responds to stress, and defaults to familiar behaviors. These patterns extend well beyond addiction—showing up as burnout, overextension, people-pleasing, and self-doubt.

 

This work is about identifying those patterns and replacing them with intentional, effective tools—aligned with who you are now and where you’re going.

 

I work with individuals ready for meaningful change, with a focus for those in the workplace who want to strengthen boundaries, elevate their voice, and lead with clarity and confidence.

​

  • Strengthen self-trust in decision-making

  • Establish clear, sustainable boundaries

  • Communicate with precision and authority

  • Move beyond people-pleasing and perfectionism

  • Lead with clarity, presence, and intention

"I was introduced to Julie in Feb 2025 at a time in my life when my business was struggling, my marriage was failing, and my wife was expecting our second child in a month or so. Essentially facing the prospect of no income, two kids, and a potential divorce. My wife and I had been to couples and individual therapy multiple times, but none of it seemed to create lasting positive change. The friend who introduced me to Julie said that Julie would help me "think about how I'm showing up in my life". That phrase did not mean much to me at the time, and I was at an extreme point in my life, so I decided to try it, why not. In our intro session, I expected more of a "therapist"-type interaction, where I spout all my problems and effectively just get my feelings validated. If that's what you want, then Julie is not the coach for you. She paused me in the middle of a "my life sucks" rant and said, "I want to stop you right there, and ask you to observe your energy right now." She then walked me through an exercise that made me pay attention to the deep (negative) energy and resentment I was carrying with my words and in my body. That's Julie's style. She calls your BS, but in a way that is caring and illuminating, not degrading.

 

Long story short, I ended up working with Julie for the next year+. She gave me practical, thoughtful advice on dealing with family matters, navigating work situations, and really participating more fully in my own life. She helped me develop a habit of writing down my thoughts through "Monday Hour 1", helped improve my communication within my marriage, and helped me create the emotional space I needed for myself and my family. I feel my primary task now is to continue practicing these tools consistently - I still hear Julie's voice in my head when the old negative thoughts resurface (and they will), and I know I can handle these feelings with confidence. Julie's coaching was the right thing at the right time, and I couldn't be more grateful for the work she does. There are a lot of conmen/conwomen out there masquerading as "coaches" with garbage advice. Julie is the real deal.

​

PS: I recommended Julie to a friend going through a similar rough patch in his marriage, and after a few months of coaching his wife told me, "Julie saved our marriage". That's a pretty great rec if you ask me."
