About me

Hello, I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Arizona with a Doctoral degree in Behavioral Health Education and a Master's degree in Counseling. I have provided mental health services in various settings over the past 14 years including community mental health, hospitals, and correctional facilities. I specialize in trauma, PMADs (postpartum), grief and relationship issues. I can work with you to improve your concerns and symptoms in a supportive and collaborative way.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first meeting together, we will have the opportunity to get to know each other. I know how challenging and uncomfortable it can be to open up to someone. My first priority is to create a safe space that you feel confident in, so we can do great work.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked as a therapist/counselor for over 14 years, I Have been privileged to work with so many different people. I believe I learn from them as much as they learn from me. I listen, I follow up and I work to consider multiple sides and needs, to provide the best care I can.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I have worked with all kinds of people, from all walks of life. I enjoy working with men and women. I especially appreciate the opportunity to support parents, as they navigate pregnancy and postpartum issues. I also like helping people challenge and readjust unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

Rogerian has been my primary therapy style my entire career. I want to meet the person, not the issue or the symptom(s). I appreciate the benefit of being empathetic and supportive in this therapeutic journey.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have been using CBT techniques for over 10 years. I can help you connect your thoughts and feelings and understand how they are impacting your choices and actions.

EMDR

I have been officially trained in EMDR for 2 1/2 years. I can provide EMDR services to help with trauma and other intense distress.

Psychoeducation

I have used psychoeducation to help and support clients my entire career. I specialize in educating individuals on perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and maternal mental health. However, I can provide beneficial education on a myriad of therapeutic topics.

I had a wonderful first session with Dr. Julylah Bennett. She was warm and made me feel like we were having a conversation. She was able to take the time and identify future goals, all while setting the tone for our future sessions. This was a 10/10 experience and will gladly be working with Dr. Julylah Bennett.

Dr. Bennett has helped make more progress in 7 months than I did in therapy with my last therapist of 3.5 years. I’ve made more progress with her than I have in any therapy my whole life. She is very encouraging, straight forward, honest, supportive and solution oriented. She gives me great homework and handouts to work on. She has a genuine caring attitude that makes her easy to open up to. She is very intuitive and nonjudgmental. I appreciate her insights, experience and expertise so much!

I was very nervous about my first session with Dr. Bennett because I did not know what to expect. I am glad that I followed through and attended because Dr. Bennett is very experienced and knowledgeable, easy to converse with, and a wonderful active listener. I am excited about future sessions with Dr. Bennett now that we have had the opportunity to meet.
