Hi, I’m Julio. I believe therapy works best when you feel like you can actually be yourself—not when you feel like you have to say the “right” thing.
I work with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, stress, relationships, life transitions, and the everyday pressures that can leave you feeling overwhelmed or stuck. My approach is warm, collaborative, practical, and sometimes even a little humorous. Therapy can involve difficult conversations, but that doesn’t mean every conversation has to feel heavy.
I like to understand how you experience the world before jumping into solutions. Together, we can explore what’s happening, identify patterns that may be getting in the way, recognize the strengths you already have, and build practical strategies that make sense for your life.
And therapy with me doesn't always look like the stereotypical therapy session. I enjoy movies, anime, video games, comics, music, literature, and learning new things, so don't be surprised if a character, story, or random pop-culture reference finds its way into a conversation when it helps make something easier to understand.
Most importantly, you don't have to arrive with everything figured out. You can be anxious, awkward, energetic, frustrated, unsure, or still discovering who you are. There's room for that here.
My goal isn't to tell you who you should become. It's to help you better understand yourself, build confidence in navigating life's challenges, and create meaningful changes that feel true to who you are.
Sometimes finding your way forward starts with one honest conversation.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
