Hi, I’m Julie! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) Colorado License #00000745, and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP) in Arvada, Colorado. I specialize in clients with unresolved trauma from abuse /neglect as a child, harsh training in organized sports or academia, impacts of generational, cultural and religious patterns, and traumatic events. My clients feel stuck in fight, flight or freeze, unworthy of love, anxious, and overwhelmed. My clients are ready to try a body-based modality because talk therapy hasn't helped them to get out of their heads and connect with what is going on inside: they want to attune to their inner experience, learn to release stored tensions from their nervous systems, rewire and regulate their emotions to feel ease with themselves. See my About page for more about me, and FAQs for more about Somatic Experiencing (SE), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Contact me for a free, 15 minute consultation.

Bloom Counseling is here to provide body-based, individual counseling for people experiencing mental health stress. I’ll help you learn to release old wounds and patterns, and plant seeds that grow connections to your inner wisdom, regulation and ease.
It’s time for you to Bloom. Unfold. Revive.
Family dynamics, navigating life transitions and changes, social interactions, physical problems, and loss may have you feeling stuck, unheard, de-valued and dismissed. Generational, cultural and institutional ways of doing things aren’t working for you anymore. When we have unresolved trauma or accumulated stress, we tend to become dysregulated; feel overwhelmed, unlovable, and disengaged, lose touch with our purpose, and have strong emotions like fear, depression, anxiety, anger, grief, irritability. We also may have physical pain or chronic health issues.
You may feel like these symptoms are the new normal. Maybe you’re avoiding things when you’d like to be thriving. You just know that something is “off” in your body, mind, or in relationships. Maybe you find yourself collapsing: watching too much TV, drinking more, or not attending social functions. Or, you might be in overdrive: feeling hyper-vigilant and anxious a lot. And your usual self-help go-tos are no longer working.
You’d like to talk to someone trustworthy, get some ideas, return to your center, and find some balance. You’re wanting to get in touch with your real feelings, because they sometimes seem so far away. Cultivating hope, joy and happiness are important to you. You’d like to flourish. Contact me now to get started on your healing journey.
