Getting to know Liah Jutila

A little about me (and not the cliche "I like hiking in my free time" information). I am a military spouse, mom of two littles, and a type C human. I like to think I'm a reader, but I've realized I mostly just like owning books. I'm an introvert, but value deep connection. I love dogs (I have 2), and will probably ask to see yours during the session. My approach I understand that starting counseling can be wildly intimidating. Welcoming someone into the most vulnerable parts of life is not something that feels very natural. That said, I recognize and embrace that a connection should be formed before the work can begin. Through this, I offer some instances of self-disclosure in the first few sessions when appropriate and applicable. There are limitations to deeper connection when I am just a stranger sitting across the screen from you. My focus My ideal client would be someone who shows up to each session with an open mind. I do not expect you to be 110% prepared to do deep work or ready to make a massive change each session. I want you to know that you are showing up to a safe space that will meet you where you are. I never want my clients to feel they need to put on a facade - as long as you are open-minded as to what could come from a session, I am ready to work with you. My communication style Empathy, support, and validation are the foundation of my work. When you offer me the trust and vulnerability of sharing details of your life, I want it to be met with the understanding that it is not an easy thing to do. Therefore, my ultimate goal is to never make you feel guilt, shame, doubt, or judgement for the details you share with me. Even though I may move on to challenging thoughts or behaviors, you will initially be validated for what is shared. My journey to mental healthcare I began my journey in a more 'traditional' social work way - community mental health, inpatient psych, case management, etc.
