Hello! My name is Julianne and my pronouns are she/they.
As a q***r, Filipino, neurodivergent individual, my work largely draws from my own personal experiences with intersectionality and navigating the ongoing disenfranchisement of our communities. I believe healing the wounds of our holistic wellbeing is rooted in community, connection and safety. My approach as a therapist is to embody a warm, steady support that walks alongside you with intention, providing a safe, non-judgmental and affirming space to navigate identity exploration, trauma experiences, and life stressors. In this space, our work together will be collaborative and shared – focusing on what matters most to you and your experiences.
I received a Master’s of Counseling from Arizona State University, where my studies centered around liberation and decolonization practices in therapeutic setting. I work through a person-centered, eclectic lens, drawing from therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Narrative, Feminist, Somatic and Liberation/Systems. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) and would be happy to discuss and explore whether this therapy aligns with your goals and care.
In my previous experiences as a therapist, I worked closely with neurodivergent individuals, youth and adults who have experienced relational violence, trauma, and individuals with co-morbid diagnoses in a general mental health setting. Currently at GIC, I provide individual and family therapy for youth and adults (ages 8+), as well as parent coaching.
In my spare time, I enjoy being outdoors, reading, gaming, engaging in a rotation of arts and crafts, and spending time with my lovely partner.
As you embark on your journey of well-being, it would be my honor to assist and provide connection, support, practical tools and empowerment, to enable you to live the full, authentic life you deserve.
