There’s a specific kind of shame that comes with migraines.

The kind where you feel like you have to prove you tried hard enough—
that you took the meds, drank the water, did everything ‘right.’

And still… you’re here.

I see this feeling show up in therapy all the time too—
especially with chronic illness and invisible struggles.

The fear of being misunderstood.
Of not being believed.
Of it somehow being your fault.
But needing support doesn’t mean you failed. And not everything that impacts you is something you can control.

Some things are real, even when they can’t be seen.

✨ Meet Julie ✨

We’re so excited to introduce Julie, a therapist at our practice who brings a deeply compassionate, relational approach to her work with clients.

Julie specializes in working with teens and adults navigating:
• Trauma (including childhood, relational and sexual trauma)
• Emotional abuse and neglect
• Interpersonal and relationship challenges
• Enmeshment and people-pleasing patterns
• Perfectionism

Her work is grounded in helping clients better understand their experiences, build healthier relationships, and reconnect with themselves in a meaningful way.

Julie creates a space that feels safe, supportive, and genuinely human—while still helping clients gently work through the patterns that may be keeping them stuck.

If you’ve been looking for a therapist who truly gets the complexity of relationships and trauma, Julie may be a great fit 🤍

We’ve been taught to compliment how people look…
but the things that actually stay with us are how we make people feel.

The way someone shows up.
The way they listen.
The way they care.

Those are the compliments that land deeper—and last longer.

Start noticing those. Start saying those. 🤍

There was a time I thought I was behind…
watching everyone else move faster, do more, be more.

But comparison will drain you faster than anything.

I’m not in competition with anyone else anymore.
Not their timeline. Not their success. Not their life.

It’s me vs me.
Growing, evolving, and showing up a little stronger every day.

And honestly…
little me would be so proud 🤍

Supporting someone with an eating disorder can feel confusing, overwhelming, and sometimes even scary.

There’s no perfect script—but there are ways to show up that help instead of harm.

Your role isn’t to fix them.
It’s to be a safe place in a world that often reinforces the disorder.

Consistency > perfection 🤍

That moment your brain tries to stay casual but your body is like…
“nope, we are absolutely not okay with this information”

You can care about what’s happening in the world and still need boundaries with how much you take in 🤍

If I’m at Disney… do my responsibilities even exist? 🏰✨

You can love your family
and still need boundaries.

Both can exist at the same time.

If setting boundaries feels “wrong”… it’s probably because you were never allowed to have them.

That doesn’t mean you don’t deserve them now 🤍

Just trying to enjoy the view and my brain said “what if we spiral instead?” 🤍

Not everyone is meant to understand your growth. Some people only liked you when you were smaller.
Keep going anyway.🤍

I wish I could take it away for you…
but the real work is learning you can handle it 🤍

The goal isn’t to eliminate the thoughts, it’s to change your relationship to them.
