Hi, I’m Julia

I am a Registered Social Worker and counsellor. My approach is gentle, relational, and heartfelt, while grounded in curiosity, compassion, and respect for each person’s unique way of moving through pain. I don’t see grief as something to “fix,” but as something to treat gently with warmth and kindness. I strive to create a space where, together, we bear the unbearable with courage and equanimity.
