Therapists for college students near Boulder, CO
Feeling "not good enough"? Like no mater how hard you try, you still feel "inadequate"? You don't have to internalize this damaging societal programming. It seems to bombard us from all directions: social media, in-groups at school, family, professors, society at large. Together we'll work to replace this narrative with one of innate worthiness, internal strength, emotional intelligence, enhanced well being, and more fulfilling relationships. In addition to traditional talk therapy, we'll use proven breathing techniques and movement exercises to reduce stress, anxiety, or depression and make room for your true uninhibited self to arise.
We specialize in supporting undergraduate and graduate students coping with inevitable challenges that come with this time in your life, as well as the profound growth that is possible during this chapter. Particularly, we enjoy supporting students' resilience to shame, social and performance anxiety, grief and loss, body image concerns, perfectionism and self-criticism, panic, and trauma. We also offer support with substance abuse. In addition, we help students move towards empowering the identities and values most important to you, building enriching relationships, and thriving in your chosen passions. Lastly, we offer individual counseling and high performance psychology, group counseling, and psychological testing services, and enjoy working with students across the neurodevelopmental spectrum.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process between therapist and client, and that by working together we can help you move toward understanding and healing. Your job is to be curious about yourself. Mine is to inspire and assist you in exploring the unknown, uncomfortable, and unfamiliar. I strive to kindly challenge the way people think, and to be challenged myself. I am honored when asked to be present in challenging times, and work to balance holding room for discomfort while helping you discover how to move forward. My ultimate goal is to help you heal by building upon our respect, honesty, and mindfulness. I approach counseling from an experiential and existential perspective, and integrate attachment, feminist, and narrative therapies. My training includes EFT, Gestalt, MI, and DBT. I love counseling young adults, and have worked in school settings for 15 years. I also greatly enjoy working with couples. I'm active in LGBTQIA+ and polyamorous communities. I find joy in helping clients explore and heal, no matter what journey you find yourself on! I look forward to connecting with you. I specialize in working with teens, young adults, older adults, couples, relationship issues, life transitions, multicultural concerns, members of LGBTQIA+ communities, and polyamorous individuals, couples, and families.
Julia’s passion is guiding people through psychotherapy towards a more fulfilled sense of wholeness and aliveness. Motivated by her interest in understanding people, Julia completed a Masters in Clinical Mental Health counseling at Naropa University and is now in private practice in South Boulder as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). She provides therapy for individuals and couples with a variety of mental health and life challenges using mindfulness-based and somatic psychotherapy. She is informed by the belief that health and healing look different for each person, and evolve over time toward our unique version of health and wholeness. Julia creates a space of non-judgement, compassion and humor so that clients can explore their experiences with kindness and understanding. Outside of her professional life, her time is spent creating art, cooking lovely meals, and spending time in the great outdoors.
You've been feeling anxious, depressed, maybe your relationships are struggling. Feeling overwhelmed, like you are not in control of your life can get in the way of your job, school, your confidence and your ability to be present in daily life. You might be thinking, "nobody knows what I'm going through" or have thoughts telling you that “you are just not good enough.” Healing is possible. Get the help that you need to move on from the difficult things that have happened to you. It is my number one goal to support you and help you experience a sense of safety and stability. You will learn coping mechanisms and ways of managing the overwhelming feelings and emotions. I use EMDR and sensorimotor psychotherapy, which just means working with the body. I believe our bodies can help us in the process of healing. EMDR is very effective for depression, anxiety, PTSD and much more.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck in a pattern that is hurting you or the people in your life, or just not living the life that you want to live, it might be time to talk to someone. I offer traditional talk therapy from a blend of therapeutic modalities including somatic awareness practices, Jungian archetypal exploration, mindfulness based visualization, and behavioral therapy. Additionally, I provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy for clients suffering from complex trauma, addiction, depression, and anxiety.
This transitional phase can be both exciting and overwhelming for young adults as they navigate the intricacies of gaining independence, making career choices, forging relationships, and finding their rightful place in the world. Amidst these challenges, many also face the complexities of managing anxiety, coping with depression, adjusting to the realities of ‘adulting,’ resolving roommate issues, and confronting substance use concerns. I provide a compassionate and supportive environment, offering practical guidance to help young adults navigate these multifaceted changes. My approach is designed to help overcome these obstacles, address emotional and mental health challenges, and foster a deep sense of purpose and direction.

My ideal female clients are independent, driven, and highly capable individuals, who feel disconnected from their true selves. They are successful in their careers and relationships, but feel something is missing. They often experience dissatisfaction, burnout, or unfulfilled potential because they are stuck in patterns that don’t align with their true desires or values. These women may feel like they are wearing a mask—pretending to be someone they’re not in different situations, whether it’s at work or in their personal lives. They’re often navigating relationship challenges, struggling with unhealthy dynamics, or feeling unfulfilled in their careers. They seek clarity, support, and guidance to uncover who they truly are, reconnect with their authentic selves, and build deeper, more meaningful relationships. Their primary goal is to break free from the patterns that keep them feeling stuck, develop a sense of fulfillment, and experience genuine connection both with themselves and others. They want to stop hiding behind a facade and start living life on their own terms—feeling empowered, authentic, and aligned with their values. Ultimately, these women want to create a life that feels true to them—a life that is full of joy, confidence, and deeper connection with others. Through therapy, they want to explore their true desires, heal from past patterns, and step into a life that’s fully aligned with who they are.
I will help you build skills for greater self-confidence and inner peace. I specialize in helping young people manage depression and anxiety; especially when this dovetails with a history of trauma, body image issues, or substance abuse. I work to help you increase awareness of your strengths and develop strategies for more effective decision making.
Change is hard, and getting to know yourself is a process! Some of my clients are neurodivergent, and want support in adjusting to new surroundings and building new skills. I also work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, and with other mental health concerns. My background is in somatic, movement-based counseling. In sessions, we might spend time learning more about what your body is telling you, and working with it to find balance and relief. Sessions can also look like talking about life, using expressive art to explore your emotions, or practicing mindfulness skills.

I work best with individuals who are interested in exploring their inner world. Those who benefit most from this work are often seeking to better understand their struggles and find renewed energy and meaning through the process. I work with you to explore and address the issues behind your emotional distress. Together, we will bring awareness to the ways you manage fear, pain, and anger. This exploration will contact the experiences you often avoid, including doubt and vulnerability. When you can experience yourself more fully, you reclaim lost parts of your self. Ultimately, this is a path to building trust in yourself and others. It is deeply rewarding—turning suffering into self-understanding and engagement with life.

"Resilience is based on being able to accept ambiguity and find hope amid uncertain conditions." This notion, shared by Dr. Pauline Boss, is one that is central to my clinical practice. We all have points in our lives when stress, change, or loss, may leave us feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of what lies ahead. The opportunity to warmly welcome clients into my office to re-gain their center, tap into internal resources, and nurture the development of new strategies is one I welcome each time I meet someone new. Rocky, my therapy dog, provides an added level of comfort for clients.

If you're a college student who is smart and capable but stuck, we get it. Maybe the structure that carried you through high school disappeared, deadlines pile up, you know what you should be doing and can't make yourself start, or the semester feels like it's slipping away. Noble Mentors pairs you with a mentor who works with you in real life, not just in an office: on campus, at a coffee shop, on a trail, or on video from anywhere. Together you build the systems that actually work for your brain (time, tasks, routines, follow-through), practice them side by side, and then you own them. We work especially well with students with ADHD, executive function challenges, autism and neurodivergence, social anxiety, or the general feeling of being off track. Mentoring is not therapy and doesn't replace it; many of our students also see a counselor, and we coordinate with your care team. Every mentor is trained and supervised, with clinical oversight from our Clinical Director, a licensed clinical social worker. In person across Boulder, Denver, and the Front Range, and by video nationwide. Free 40-minute consultation, and you get to choose your mentor.
