Getting to know Julia Girzadas
*This provider does not accept any Medicaid or Medicare plans*
Picture this: a welcoming and safe space where you can kick back, log in, and chat about whatever’s on your mind. I get it. I’ve been there-and I’m all about empowering you. Low self-esteem' Feeling overwhelmed or stuck' Life inherently brings many complexities and challenges, and perhaps you’re not sure where to start. Whatever it is, let’s tackle it together with an approach rooted in genuine understanding and empowerment.
Together, we’ll unravel the layers, challenge those negative self-perceptions, and build a foundation of self-worth. This will allow you to live your life authentically, true to who you are. I’m not here to just talk; I’m here to guide you in discovering the strength within yourself. I’ve found my calling in supporting young adults and adults navigating the complexities of life, especially those dealing with sexual trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. What I love most is working with clients who are ready to dive into meaningful conversations about the stuff that truly matters to them.
Therapy isn’t just a passive experience; it’s a collaborative journey. I’m not about providing all the answers but working with you to uncover your own. Let’s embark on this path of self-discovery and empowerment, one conversation at a time. Compassion, empathy, and respect-these are non-negotiables in my book.. Compassion, empathy, and respect-these are non-negotiables in my book.

What should a new client know about working with you?
My specialized interests include working with young adults and adults who have a history of sexual trauma, anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. I hope to work with clients who are motivated to come to therapy and discuss the topics they feel are important. I work well with clients who have low self-esteem as I am extremely passionate about an empowerment approach with clients.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My own experiences in therapy changed my life. My time in therapy gave me hope to continue and I was amazed how one person could provide that for another. I hope to create a welcoming and safe environment for you to feel comfortable logging on and talking about whatever is coming to mind. I strive to lead by example and demonstrate the power of empathy. If I am able to show you empathy, then maybe you can give yourself some empathy too.
Witnessing the transformative power of one person’s support sparked a fire in me, leading me to pursue a Master’s in Social Work at the State University of New York, Stony Brook, and a path in helping others heal and grow. My commitment goes beyond the sessions—we’ll work on strategies and practical tools that you can carry into your daily life. You’re not alone in this, and I’m here to ensure you not only find your footing but also start striding confidently.
As we work together, I will help you rebuild your self-esteem and become a stronger, more empowered version of yourself. While there may be times when you continue to second-guess yourself, you will learn to recognize those patterns and will have the tools you need to overcome those thoughts.
