If stress, anxiety, or relationships keep pulling you off balance, that’s worth addressing. My style is warm, direct, and practical, with humor when it helps you exhale. We’ll focus on boundaries, emotional safety, clear requests, and follow-through—so progress shows up outside session. CBT, Gestalt, Somatic, and Mindfulness techniques used. Client first. Before this career, I spent years in restaurants and behind the bar, where you learn fast how to read the room, listen between the lines, and help people feel able to advocate for themselves. That real world experience shaped how I show up in therapy: grounded, attentive, and genuinely interested in your story.

If these anxious thoughts make you feel not good enough and exhaust you, you’re not alone. These feelings can undermine your confidence and affect your professional and personal relationships. I’m here to help you find relief and reclaim your sense of calm and control.

I have helped clients drastically improve their lives through my nonjudgmental approach to therapy. I give clients space to freely express their concerns, while also motivating and helping to steer them toward healthier lives by gaining helpful coping skills and modifying their lifestyles where needed. Many don't realize how making small adjustments can help with sleep, or other aspects of life.

I am Dana St Julien, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges while discovering their strengths, resilience, and authentic selves. In addition to my social work training, I believe healing is most effective when we consider the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. My journey in the helping profession has provided me with extensive experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families across a variety of settings. Throughout my career, I have served as a Housing Supervisor for a transitional housing program, a School Pupil Appraisal Social Worker, a member of an Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) team, a CPST/PSR provider, an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) group facilitator, and a social worker within juvenile justice settings. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of the emotional, behavioral, and environmental factors that impact mental wellness.

You carry big responsibilities, and it’s been heavy for too long. I work with executive leaders, founders, and high performers in demanding professional roles including those who are partners and parents by turning feelings of overwhelm, perfectionism, daily stressors, and poor work/life balance into clarity. Together we’ll surface blind spots, remove roadblocks, and build workable boundaries so you can lead well at work, show up at home, and feel grounded in your relationships. Constant stress and exhaustion aren’t the cost of success. Drive and focus don’t make you immune to anxiety, burnout, sleepless racing thoughts, shame, manipulation, family complexity, or the echo of old injuries. Excellence doesn’t require perfection and saying no is okay. With over a decade of experience across multiple states, I blend psychotherapy with practical solutions by offering confidential, results-focused care tailored to your unique world. I also provide corporate mental health training, parent coordination, custody evaluations, co-parenting, reunification, and other psycho-legal consultations all delivered with discretion, expertise, and a deep understanding of high-stakes environments. If you’re ready for focused, actionable support, I’m here to help.

In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use.
