Julia Krantz, Social Work Intern
Working with me, I’d hope you’d expect a warm and inviting environment to share your hard truths. I know therapy can be a stressful environment, especially for new clients, and my goal is to make this a safe space for anyone who comes in. I will strive to understand each situation holistically and draw on my education to recognize just how complex people, relationships, and families are, in order to meet you where you’re at in your process. Through our time together, I hope you feel like the space I created for you left you feeling empowered, valued, and heard.
I am motivated by the belief that there needs to be empathetic and passionate professionals in the field of therapy. I’ve always felt a pull towards understanding and connecting with everyone I come across. Relationships in every dynamic are an important part of everyone’s life, and I draw on my positive family experience as a guiding light to be an impactful partner through your process. I am eager to build on my clinical skills, expand my experience, and support couples’ journeys for meaningful growth and healing.
