Getting to know Julianne Howdeshell

I work with clients who want a therapist that feels both grounded and human‚Äîsomeone who understands that life is complicated and healing isn‚Äôt one-size-fits-all. My approach is shaped by a diverse professional background that includes acute healthcare, Employee Assistance Programs (EAP), public education, and extensive work with individuals impacted by sexual and physical abuse. I also bring lived and clinical understanding of adoption and chronic illness, which allows me to support clients navigating complex family systems, identity questions, and long-term stressors. Clients often describe sessions with me as thoughtful, direct, and surprisingly comfortable. I believe therapy can be meaningful without being heavy all the time, and I intentionally use appropriate humor to help create safety, connection, and ease‚Äîespecially when discussing difficult topics. I am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), an evidence-based eye movement modality that helps clients process trauma, anxiety, and depression efficiently and gently. ART allows many clients to experience relief without needing to repeatedly retell painful experiences, often in fewer sessions than traditional talk therapy. Above all, I aim to meet clients where they are, honor their pace, and support them in gaining clarity, relief, and a deeper understanding of themselves‚Äîso they can move forward feeling more grounded, empowered, and connected.
