Julie Rodriguez LPCC
Julie is honored to get to know you and be a part of your journey. She believes in advocating for you and your children's needs by supporting your child's natural development. She is a proud first generation Latina who works through a social justice lens and believes in equity for all.
Julie's therapeutic lens consists of a person centered and integrative approach, incorporating evidence based and trauma informed modalities tailored to individual needs. In her work with children, Julie uses child centered play therapy and other expressive modalities. She believes play empowers children, as play is their language of communication, which helps build self confidence and unconditional acceptance.
In her work, Julie partners with parents, guardians, caregivers, and key support figures to provide comprehensive care and ensure children feel supported both in and out of therapy. Her goal is to support clients of all ages to overcome obstacles and move toward healing, growth, and acceptance.
In her free time, she enjoys chilling with her little family, hiking, listening to birds, cooking, dancing, watching TV, reading books, and all types of crafting.
.... Oh! ...and assembling Legos!!!

Kristen is highly empathetic and excellent with children and families.
