Julia Barrett is not only an amazing therapist but also a great human being. Her counsel is wise, filled with knowledge but she also knows what she talks about. Goes out of her way to extend help, even detecting things that I myself didn’t.

If you’re searching for a compassionate, insightful, and transformative therapist, look no further than Julia Barrett. From my very first session, I felt an immediate sense of comfort and trust. Julia has an incredible ability to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where I can openly explore my thoughts and emotions. What truly sets Julia apart is her intuitive understanding of my needs. She tailors her approach with such thoughtfulness, often introducing practical tools and perspectives that I can integrate into my daily life. Her empathy is genuine, and her guidance is always rooted in a deep sense of care and expertise. Working with Julia has been a game-changer for my personal growth and emotional well-being. Each session leaves me feeling heard, validated, and more empowered to navigate life’s challenges. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone seeking a therapist who genuinely cares about their journey and helps them thrive. Julia is truly one of a kind!

Sometimes life can present challenges that we don't know how to handle on our own, and it's okay to ask for help and support to navigate those challenges. It could be the sudden loss of a loved one, loss of a job, or difficulties handling day to day stress, I am here to help you through it. My name is Julia Barrett, and I am a licensed mental health counselor with more than 5 years experience helping people with a plethora of issues including depression, anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and relationship issues. I obtained my undergraduate degree from CUNY York College and my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University, I also completed some Marriage and family therapy courses at Hofstra University and have my CASAC-T certification to help people struggling with substance abuse and addiction issues.

My treatment approach varies, depending on the issues presented and treatment plan. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), client centered, narrative, humanistic and solution focused.

My goal for every client is to help you become the best version of yourself by teaching you the skills, and giving you the support that you need to overcome your challenges and gain confidence and motivation to accomplish what you would like to accomplish.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
