Meet the newest addition to the Blue Boat Counseling team, Julia Swallows, MFT (she/her) 👋

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and former Ohio State Track and Field athlete, Julia has a strong passion for helping athletes (and their families) navigate the unique challenges associated with sports, including transitions, injury, performance concerns, grief, loss, and the broader mental, relational, and social impacts of athletic life.

While she has a particular interest in working with athletes, Julia also enjoys working with individuals, couples, and families with a collaborative, goal-oriented approach. She strives to provide a safe, supportive space where clients can openly explore their needs and work toward meaningful change.

Outside of the therapy room, Julia enjoys spending time outdoors with her partner, baking new recipes, and exploring the mind-body connection through fitness and grounding practices.

Our Story...

If you’re here you may be wondering… where did Blue Boat Counseling come from? I realize it’s unconventional as practice names go, but its story starts when I was a kid. I loved blue, and it seemed to run deeper than just a favorite color. It went for all the typical things, but the practice name comes from our summer trips to amusement parks. I would get in line for the rides and always wait for the blue boat (or car or plane). Yes, this means I let other riders go ahead of me while I waited for blue, which always got a few looks. When I look back on that scene today, I realize I was just being the real me. And that blue boat is a symbol of being your true self, which is exactly what I try to help my clients find. So I decided there was no better symbol for my counseling practice than this one of authenticity and freedom to be yourself. I want my blue boat to be a reminder that you deserve to BE YOU.
