Getting to know Julian Varela

I’m a twenty-year veteran in the health and wellness industry; I believe true happiness comprises many components: a healthy emotional state, relationships, social support, meaning and purpose, assertive communication, and a healthy body. Integrating my Master’s in Clinical, Counseling, and Applied Psychology from Antioch University with my past expertise in health promotion and physiology, combined with my experience as a therapist, I focus on the whole person with an existential and solution-focused platform. My goal is to help you feel more in control of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to increase your performance in life, relationships, and career while helping to navigate a more meaningful and healthier self.

Julian has been a great professional that has crossed my path and I’m very grateful to having him as my therapist. Not once have I felt judged. I always feel heard and seen. In the darkest of my conversations he’s always providing a positive light on things and that has helped me completely.
This is my second time seeing a therapist, Julian was great during our first session. It showed he really listened and affirmed some of the things I have been feeling. I went in nervous and scared, but ended feelin great about taking the steps to see a therapist. Even though it was only the first session, I feel I expressed a lot. I felt comfortable and relaxed.
