Julia (Wiens) White

MS, LCSW

In therapy, my goal is to provide you with a safe and supportive space to examine and remove unhelpful patterns and belief systems from your past, and allow for deep and impactful change to occur.  I help clients struggling with overcoming trauma, eating disorders, anxiety, body image issues, depression and more. I also have previous clinical experience helping clients in residential eating disorder treatment centers as well as a residential trauma and PTSD recovery center.

Through my personal journey into self-acceptance and healing, I understand the importance of having a therapist that you can trust, that feels attuned to your needs and emotions and helps you become more grounded. When I reflect on the factors that helped me heal, I think back to how truly accepted, understood, and seen I felt. This allowed me to begin offering myself emotional and physical nourishment, compassion, and love. The ability to give and receive love, compassion and acceptance for oneself are powerful healing experiences that I strive to recover in my clients.

My passion is to guide and support transformation of traumatic experience. I will empower you to find freedom from toxic shame, challenge fear, heal distress caused by trauma and reignite courage. I am trained in EMDR and utilize techniques that I have gained through my training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. Through EMDR and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, I focus on restoring a sense of calm within the brain and body. I also utilize other approaches to therapy such as, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help my clients. I work to empower you and promote your healing so you can embody positive change and radical self-acceptance.

You will develop an understanding of how life experiences have shaped your way of functioning in the world, the way you perceive yourself, and how you relate to others.
