Client-Centered Care: My practice is centered around building a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients. I work collaboratively with individuals, couples, and families to empower them to make positive changes in their lives, develop coping skills, and enhance their overall well-being.

Greetings! I am Julie Meddaugh, a dedicated and compassionate licensed mental health counselor committed to supporting individuals on their journey toward emotional well-being. With about 3 years of experience in the field, I have had the privilege of working with diverse populations and guiding clients through various mental health challenges. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices, empathy, and a genuine desire to help others navigate life's complexities. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and I am adept at creating a safe and non-judgmental environment.
I hold a MSED in Mental Health Counseling from Saint Bonaventure University, where I gained a solid foundation in psychological theories and therapeutic techniques. Additionally, I earned a MSED in Education, specializing in special education and worked as an elementary and special education teacher for over 18 years.
With my experiences in education, forensics, community and private mental health, I decided to start my own practice to include children ages 8 and up, adolescents, and adults.
If you are seeking a compassionate and experienced mental health counselor to support you on your journey, I am here to help. Let's work together towards positive change and emotional growth.
