Getting to know Julia Villarreal
Hi there, I'm Julia!
Welcome. I am glad that you are seeking out help at this time, and know it isn't always easy to do so. For my approach as a therapist, it is the highest importance for clients to feel seen, heard, understood, and respected. Research shows that the therapeutic relationship between therapist and client can determine therapy outcomes, so I greatly value the connection made between myself as a therapist and you as the client.
A little about me: I have been practicing therapy for 6+ years. I attended The University of Texas at San Antonio for my Bachelor's degree in Psychology and attended California State University, Chico for my Master's of Science in Psychology with the focus of Marriage and Family Therapy. I gained experience as a therapist at during that time with traineeships at a substance abuse center as well as at a non-profit counseling center for members in the LGBTQ+ community. Since then, I have worked in community mental health, school counseling, and telehealth and have met with the following client populations: individual adults, couples, teenagers, elderly clients, clients struggling with substance abuse, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and have worked with clients from multiple different cultural backgrounds.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I recognize vulnerability and reaching out for help isn’t easy, so my approach could be described as non-judgmental, curious, warm, empowering, empathetic, and client centered to facilitate a safe space. I know each person I meet with has their own unique characteristics, strengths, and struggles, which is why I will collaborate with you to create an individual treatment plan to meet your goals.
More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
