You’ve always been the one who feels deeply—even when you don’t show it.

Maybe you’re the go-to for everyone else, but inside, you feel anxious, emotionally drained, or unsure who you really are. Whether you’re navigating overwhelming emotions, a college student feeling lost in the transition to adulthood, or someone stuck in patterns that no longer serve you—therapy can help create space for clarity and self-trust. Julia Maggio, Resident in Counseling, specializes in helping teens and adults who feel emotionally overloaded, shut down, or unsure of who they are beneath the surface. She is especially passionate about working with clients who have always felt “too sensitive,” struggled with self-worth, or felt like they had to hide their emotions to keep the peace.

Julia’s approach is relational, strengths-based, and grounded in the belief that healing begins with self-awareness, emotional safety, and connection. She helps clients uncover the why behind their emotional patterns and build the insight and tools needed to move forward. Julia helps clients go from working against their challenges, to working with their challenges. Clients often describe Julia as both calming and insightful—someone who brings warmth, depth, and gentle challenge to the therapeutic space.

If you're ready to feel more like yourself again, therapy with Julia might be a powerful place to start.
