Nationally Certified Licensed professional counselor
Julie Benvenuto M.A.
My Approach
Individually tailored
No single psychological state is the same, nor the patient. This is why my professional goal is to tailor my approach in counseling to the unique set of circumstances of any individual patient.
Non-patronizing
In my practice I never underestimate and I always assess any life struggles as those that are understood not as problems to be fixed or eradicated, but rather as important indications & knowledge that must be used in the healing process.
Strengths-focused
My stance is that everyone has both a set of weaknesses and a set of strengths. As a counseling professional, I will do my best to eliminate the former and to empower the latter. Any person that seeks therapy has a set of strengths.
Collaborative
My personal perception of the relationship between a therapist and a patient is that of an equal partnership with shared motivations and goals. I facilitate and help support a process we co-create together.
Experience-based
I’ve been in the counseling business for years upon years. And let me tell you one thing - every single person and every single new patient enrich my experience and understanding of my craft.
Holistic
As someone with formal medical training, I am convinced that any psychological issue should be taken holistically. Body, heart, mind, and spirit are all equally important here.
