Welcome! I’m really glad you’re here.

My name is Julien! I am a Licensed Clinican Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and Clinical Rehabiliation Counselor (CRC) in North Carolina.

I offer warm, person-centered therapy for teens and adults, with a focus on supporting LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse identites with cultural humility.

Therapy for teens and adults

I work with teens and adults in navigating diverse identities, relationships, neurodivergence, life transitions, and the stress of trying to exist in a complicated world.

My approach is queer-affirming, collaborative, and inclusive of all of the identities and experiences that shape who you are!

Therapy with me

My sessions are tailored to you! However you feel safest showing up, I am with you. We’ll work together to explore what’s coming up for you, practice skills and tools that fit you, and create space for understanding and growth.

I meet clients with compassion, attentiveness, and humor to gently disentangle shame and stigma, heal intergenerational trauma, and empower them towards self-determination and self-love.

Insurance & Scheduling

I accept (or am in the process of accepting!) the following insurance plans:

  • AETNA Plans

  • Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO Plans (Anthem, Blue Options, Blue Advantage)

  • BCBS Blue Care HMO Plans

  • BCBS Blue Value Plans

  • NC State Employee’s Health Plan

  • United Healthcare/Optum Health (Anticipated April 2026)

Please note that I am not in network with other BCBS limited network plans (for example, Healthy Blue, Blue Home with Novant Health, Blue Home with UNC Health Alliance, and Blue Local) or BCBS, Cigna, or AETNA Medicare plans.

I also offer private pay options! If you are unsure where you fit, I’m happy to help you navigate next steps!

Whatever you’re carrying, you don’t have to carry it alone.
