Julie Weston, MA, LPC

At various times throughout life, one may find themselves out of alignment, facing challenges, feeling off and not quite themself. I can assist you in identifying the underlying defenses, core beliefs, and patterns of behavior that hold you back; leaving you feeling stuck and creating challenges. In my role, I offer a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space to express what has been held in, and discover inner strength to implement realistic change.

I can teach and encourage you to develop coping skills to tolerate distress, utilize emotion regulation skills to find inner peace and confidence, and discover how you would like to be in relationship with others and yourself. I will assist you in finding motivation, seeing situations from different perspectives, and establishing sustainable routines.

My background has been working with individuals with substance use issues, relationship problems, anxiety, depression, and grief. I believe it is crucial for you to feel heard, understood, and accepted in a therapeutic relationship, and it’s my priority to establish a relationship that works for us as we work toward the goals you want to achieve.
