I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, addictions, depression, OCD, and trauma. I also help couples and families with communication issues and parenting.

Life can often feel overwhelming, and I’m glad you are here seeking support! We all have strengths and inner resources, but sometimes our ability to access them is clouded. Sometimes we believe an old, limiting story about who we are or how we are supposed to be. Sometimes we just feel stuck. Life can feel more difficult than expected - relationships can suffer, and connection can be elusive. I have the life experience and clinical training to help. In therapy, we can shift the focus toward creating our preferred story, allowing our authentic self to emerge. www.julianafriedmantherapy.com
