Listen… I have been in therapy for 13 years trying to find a compatible therapist that actually “gets it.” Julie gets it. She is compassionate, funny, and smart. I immediately felt at ease talking to her, which is very rare for me. If you are looking for a therapist, especially if you’re a member of the LGBTQ community, I cannot recommend Julie more.
More about Julie

Hi,
I am a practicing Licensed Professional Counselor for the past 20 years and have over 30 years working in the mental health field. My experience ranges from working on inpatient psychiatric units and in crisis counseling programs, to providing individual and family therapy. My therapeutic approach is always person centered, strengths based and goal oriented. Whether you are having a crisis in your life, have suffered a loss, are adjusting to changing situations in your life, or are just wanting to be happier and feel better about yourself, I can help you.
I have a passion for helping the LBGTQ community, be that helping someone through the coming out process, improve family relationships and develop healthy confidence and self-esteem in a culture that is still sometimes condemning and unsupportive. I like to help family members of LGBTQ folks better understand and improve ways of showing loving support and overcoming any obstacles to being supportive.
Another population that I have a passion for helping is Highly Sensitive People. Many people get diagnosed with major mental illnesses due to their symptoms of having difficulty coping with a stressful and chaotic world. Highly Sensitive people, and introverts, are often misunderstood and criticized for being themselves and end up feeling like something is wrong with them, when, in fact, they may just have traits that need to be understood, honored and respected. Our culture tends to value extroversion and toughness, and yet sensitives and introverts are some of the most creative, artistic, kind and empathetic people on the planet. Sensitivity and introversion are not problems or things to change, explain or defend. They are wonderful traits that you can understand better and therefore develop greater confidence and ways of communicating your needs and feelings. If you wonder if you are a Highly Hi Sensitive person, Google search Highly Sensitive Person self test and check out Elaine Aron’s work online. I also enjoy and have experience working with Autism Spectrum folks.
I like to help people develop deeper insights and understanding of their unique personality, and using such insight to improve communication, relationships and life choices. I frequently work with people on knowing and understanding their personality typology (based on Carl Jung’s work and Myers Briggs test) and will link you to free online tests to get the information you need to better understand yourself and how you fit with other personality types. This kind of insight therapy will help you throughout your life rather than just focusing on addressing the issues of today.
If you can relate to any of this information, I may be a great therapy fit for you and would love to work with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Amazing, empathetic, genuine, empowering
Listen… I have been in therapy for 13 years trying to find a compatible therapist that actually “gets it.” Julie gets it. She is compassionate, funny, and smart. I immediately felt at ease talking to her, which is very rare for me. If you are looking for a therapist, especially if you’re a member of the LGBTQ community, I cannot recommend Julie more.
Julie is a wonderful therapist, she really understands how to finesse her focus on themes and specific stuff we are working through- which is something I didn't realize was possible to have with a therapist. For example, if I want to talk about something that is difficult for me, she is great about making space to do that, keeping on track with making sure we go over it even if I am sometimes avoiding bringing it up because it's hard for me, but also being mindful of that I may need to recover after going over that, or it may not be the best moment, and helping me anticipate ways to practice self care while covering things like past trauma or current major stressors. It's an incredible skill she has, amongst her many skills, and her kindness.
Julie has helped me tremendously since the very first session. She is kind, extremely knowledgeable and funny at the perfect times. She has taught me so much about myself, and techniques to help me love myself more. I look forward to seeing her each week, and love having sessions with her as part of my self-care routine.
Julie is so amazing and kind! I have had a few sessions so far with her and feel like she already fully understands me. She has really helped me to further understand myself better and provided me with the tools to work through my struggles. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking patience, kindness and understanding from their therapist.
Very gentle and comforting soul. She sits and listens to me speak very patiently and remembers the things I tell her. She has a way about her that hurt makes you feel comfortable. She also is willing to let you get to know her. I think she’s great!
Julie is a safe place to be who you are and to heal. I don’t know where I’d be if I hadn’t of found her.
You have a sweet soul and I actually felt like you really cared for me and believed in me
One of the many things that I appreciate about working with Julie is that I feel comfortable approaching subjects that I previously have not been able to really navigate at all, and I didn't realize how much that mattered to me in getting to understand my trauma and move through it. Julie has made it possible for me to face some of the things that have felt pretty untouchable and risky to examine, and to feel safe going there even if it does become difficult for me, I know she has a way of proactively checking in about how I'm doing, and helping me understand my own needs and boundaries by asking great questions and making space for what I'm going through and feeling. She has a really great way of being available and gently directive of the session (which I need!), so her finesse with managing that and being sensitive to what I have asked about- needing help addressing and understanding things that I usually avoid- it's really helped me improve my life and I appreciate her skills and her sensitivities, she is a great therapist.
Julie is the BEST! She truly cares. She is genuine and good people. I enjoy my therapy sessions. She challenges me when I need it and has helped me progress through some difficult issues.
Best therapist I have had
Open minded and empathetic! Love our healing conversation.
She’s great
Julie is the one. The universe sends people to deliver the tools you need in life, and she’s proof
Julie is attentive, thoughtful, knowledgeable, generous, funny, and all around highly skilled at working with me. I feel confident and motivated to continue therapy and address some things that have been very hard for me to face, and that is directly related to Julie's skill and kindness in helping me navigate this. I have struggled with avoiding talking about difficult things with a counselor, and I feel comfortable and willing to work though those things with Julie because of her skill in navigating the sessions, asking me good questions, sharing useful information and insights, sensitivity to my experience, and her wonderful personality. I am learning a lot and feeling hopeful about how much more there is to learn, and so grateful to be working with her. Thank you!
Julie is amazing!
Julie Knight is insightful, experienced, supportive, and kind. She listens and reflects. She helps reframe how I see things when reframing is necessary. She is very validating. She draws on many years of experience. She is very empathetic and understands the LGBTQ experience. She has helped me navigate some challenging times in my recent life.
Julie is amazing! So warm and welcoming and tuned into just being there and participating through this journey with me. Not just sitting back and writing notes while quietly judging me. I feel like Julie is in the trenches actively doing this work with me and I’m very appreciative of that! Thanks Julie!!
Julie has been my counselor for a month or so now, but I’m a nursing student so my schedule is insanely busy and Julie has been so understanding about that. I have not felt an ounce of judgement from her about any issue- from the smallest to the biggest- and that is what everyone deserves in a counselor.
Julie has been one of the easiest people I have ever talked to. She is so warm and kind and understanding.
Julie Knight has been a great help. She is a sympathetic listener and offers helpful suggestions for dealing with stress. I am so happy to have her support.
Julie is insightful, kind, understanding and smart! She is relatable and offers different perspectives and outlooks as she helps you explore your issues. I'm truly grateful to have met her!
Julie is an amazing therapist. My quality of life has improved exponentially under her guidance. I would recommend her to anybody especially LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent crowds.
Don’t waste another moment, if you’re looking for the moment to choose Julie Knight here is your sign to go for it. She is that good, she respects, listens and offers up feedback that not only makes you think but let’s you HEAL. Get in here, she will be perfect for you.
Julie has been an answer to prayer. She is attentive, intuitive and most importantly she is compassionate.
Julie is the best. She is attentive and supportive. She responds quickly. She is warm and inviting. She creates a safe place to be vulnerable to work on the issues at hand. I am grateful and appreciative for Julie and the journey she is willing to walk with me.
Julie provides the most comfortable and inviting environment. Always so kind, gentle and affirming. The experience she has shines greatly in the advice I recieve. Will always recommend.
She’s great.
Julie is so awesome. I was a little worried about starting therapy just because I’d never had a good experience in the past, but she seriously helps me through so much. She’s very positive and gives me tons of resources to identify what I struggle with and need to work on.
Julie’s approach is very effective and she truly wishes to understand you on a deep level. She is honest and kind. She is easy to talk to and gives off good energy.
Julie has helped me work through a lot of my anxieties through her great insights and knowledge. I would recommend her to a friend.
Julie Knight is one of the best people I have ever met. She uses her time wisely to provide each individual with respect and care. She is intelligent, wise, open-minded, and professional while providing compassion and understanding that comes from within.
She is amazing and always so helpful.
Julie is a fantastic therapist. She listens, is empathetic, and exceedingly genuine.
Julie is a kind, empathetic, insightful spirit who has changed my life for the better! I couldn’t ask for a better therapist. Would definitely recommend her. :)
Comes from a compassionate and understanding point of view. Hands down, best therapy I’ve had.
Julie Knight is an exemplary therapist. She is astute and knowledgeable while still being so easy to talk to about my problems. It’s gotten to the point that whenever my friends or family talk to me about a problem in their lives I think, “I wish they could talk to Julie. I’m sure she could help!”
Julie is the absolute best therapist. She really cares and is so open and kind. I’ve come so far in my journey because of her guidance and support.
She’s my favorite person on this planet, and she’s so patient with me. I’m so grateful. ❤️
Julie is everything I had hoped a therapist could be for me and then some. She is thoughtful, nurturing, and challenges me in ways that are constructive and supportive. I couldn’t ask for anything more in a therapist.
Julie is the perfect therapist.
I've never felt more heard and validated
Julie is so wonderful! She always helps me recognize my needs and reach my goals.
I’m so thankful to have Julie as my therapist. I’ve been with her for 3 years now & have made so much improvement with my mental health. I always feel like she is really listening to me & that she truly cares :)
Julie is probably my 3rd therapists I’ve had in my life and she’s great! Really listens to me and supports me! I appreciate her input and perspective.
Julie is a fantastic therapist. She is open, listens thoughtfully, and gives great feedback and advice. I highly recommend her.
Julie is a great therapist and listens and addresses all my concerns.
Jules is the best therapist I've EVER had. Being a fellow queer trans masc individual, it's super important my therapist respect and understand my lgbtq+ background and relativity to my everyday experience. I feel so seen and acknowledged by Jules. They provide a very safe, comfortable, positive learning environment. Highlt recommended Jules to everyone, but especially my queer community. Peace and love
Julie is absolutely wonderful at the work she does. She is thorough, diligent, straightforward, and tactful. There is no way to verbalize all of the positives she has brought to my life as she teaches me to see the goodness within myself. When I think back to my circumstances when I entered therapy and compare with my circumstances now, the changes are just absolutely astounding. She is a great therapist and I would recommend her to anybody.
My counseling experience with Julie has changed my life for the better! Mainly, it is a huge relief and really has helped build my self-esteem to have a secure relationship with someone where I am allowed to be the very worst version of myself and she still cares about me and respects me. She never makes me feel ashamed or rejected if I'm not where I would like to be, which allows me to feel comfortable enough to push myself toward change when I'm ready. Through our relationship, I have accepted and learned to even celebrate parts of myself that I spent years trying to change/hide. It is so liberating! I wish everyone had experiences like this with therapists, but it can be hard to find someone who is a good match like I feel like Julie has been for me. I really value that Julie is able to treat me with unconditional positive regard and our connection feels very genuine and reciprocal, which gives it meaning for me. I wouldn't have liked a therapist who was more "directive" or "top-down," always guiding me on what to do and discuss next as we work to fix my problems. Julie helps steer when I'm wandering blindly in the desert, but she mainly lets me be in the driver's seat, which I really respect and appreciate. Thank you for all you do, Julie.
She’s amazing and helpful.
She’s the BEST.
Julie has been such a powerful and supportive voice in my journey through alcoholism, depression and shame. She is so validating and listens to my issues without giving me tons of advice or short term "fixes" to my problems. I believe that anyone who has issues like mine or is an HSP would greatly benefit from her kind and validating approach. She also gives me a whole hour of counseling, where other Better Help therapists cut my time short or were always late.
Supportive encouraging
Julie has always been wonderfully supportive and has provided wonderful perspective. She’s very focused on her work and it shows. I don’t believe I’ve ever spoken to somebody with such diligence while maintaining such a calm energy. She is absolutely remarkable.
She’s awesome and love her vibe.
Julie is amazing!
I really enjoy having my sessions with Julie. She is very understanding and listens well to my issues. She has great thoughts on what would be helpful to me. I look forward to our weekly sessions.
So far, Julie and I have had four video therapy sessions together. I am so grateful to have her as my therapist. Julie is a wonderful listener and is helping me immensely in my search to find greater compassion/love/forgiveness for myself. I find Julie to be very easy to relate to, and as a result, I find myself smiling and laughing during our sessions, which is very refreshing: therapy is necessary for me, but it doesn't have to be completely serious, it should be fun and enjoyable as well.
Julie is amazing! I wish she was my mom or friend in real life. Such a great person with an amazing mind that helps me through my journeys.
Julie was a wonderful therapist, validating and very insightful. I felt we had a great connection and only stopped our work together due to financial hardship that ended when I moved out of state. Loved working with Julie!!
Absolutely amazing. Listens to everything I have to say and doesn't judge me I would definitely recommend her
Julie is absolutely wonderful. Professionally speaking, she is always on time and starts the session focused and picks up where we left off the prior session. There is never an adjustment period needed. She creates a therapy plan that fits each individual client instead of basing every client on a single therapy method. Personally, she is so easy to talk to, truly pays attention, and pulls things out by asking questions in a very empathetic and curious way. She is an interactive therapist (which I LOVE) that doesn't just sit back and listen but engages in the journey with you. I can't say enough wonderful things about Julie, I recommend her to my own friends and family all the time!
I have been working with Julie for over a year now. She has helped and supported me through a rough time and I would recommend her to anyone needing help.
Julie Knight is a wonderful therapist. The care, compassion, and dedication she has to people is extremely evident in the way she communicates with me. Her approach with her clients has helped me make extremely difficult decisions and be delivered through life situations with a sense of well being and insight to my life and the resources and material she provides will be forever integrated into my life and self development. I would absolutely recommend her to anybody.
Julie is amazing. So kind and insightful. She’s helped me so much!
I’m so thankful I have had Julie as my therapist for almost two years now! I’ve learned so much about myself & how to apply what I’ve learned in my daily life!
Julie Knight is an incredible counselor. We vibe very well together and she has taught me so much about myself and unraveling my emotional past. She is so patient and kind. I really appreciate her respectful approach in counseling.
Julie is an incredible counselor. They're intelligent and empathetic. They've helped me to understand my own thought processes and trauma processing and given thoughtful and impactful feedback during our sessions. I've tried counseling a few times in the past and it was never a good fit. Julie is the first counselor I've encountered that hasn't made me feel like my traumas and problems are all self-inflicted or that simply changing a single habit will make things all better. I feel very lucky to have found them.
She’s absolutely the best therapist/ counselor/ all of the above I’ve ever had.
I appreciate the time she spends with me. After each session, I feel heard and what I'm experiencing is validated.
Julie is an amazing therapist, and stands out from the crowd. She manages to make therapy not feel "like therapy", but like a really great conversation, while addressing my needs and goals without judgement. She truly has a passion for what she does.
She is an amazing listener and helps guide you through your problems while also processing your emotions with you. I would recommend her to everyone I know. She is personable and doesn’t feel like “just another therapist”.
Julie is one of the kindest most authentic people I have ever had the pleasure of speaking with. They make me feel comfortable and respected in all of our sessions. I am really happy we met as they are truly one of a kind!
Julie is wonderful! It feels like I’m talking to a friend when we have our sessions. I’m really glad I chose her to help me on this journey.
She is amazing and completely understanding of my situations. She is extremely supportive and I feel safe in letting my guard down.
Julie is WONDERFUL! She meets me right where I am at. She always gives great insight and has an amazing way of helping me navigate my thoughts. She really empowers me as both a client and a young woman trying to figure out the chaos of early 20s!
Julie has helped me get through some difficult life changes. She listens and gives support that lifts me up and strengthens my confidence in being able to handle whatever life brings me.
Julie is my rock.
She’s completely open-minded and truly does everything in her power to understand the real “you” so you can get the best help you need!
Julie has been amazing! To have a counselor willing to take time to learn about my personality and self without judgement is life changing! They are thoughtful, accepting, and patience. I’ve done therapy before but Julie makes me feel heard and understood when I share life experiences and traumatic life events. They don’t shy away from the hard questions and make sure I am ok after a challenging session before ending it. 15/10 would recommend Julie!
Julie has helped support me in answering questions that I didn’t even realize I was asking with my thoughts and behaviors. I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate her. Completely genuine and experienced, 15/10 would recommend every time.
Julie has created the space for me to share when I need it and has been very understanding when my schedule prevents any communication. She has been flexible and always responds even when I am just looking for someone to vent to.
I love working with Julie. She is a great listener, provides great advice and is very knowledgeable.
Julie is great; empathetic and kind. I highly recommend.
Only a couple sessions in but so far great connection and easy to work with
Julie is the best therapist I have ever had. I am making breakthroughs I never thought I would make. I am seeing results in a matter of a couple weeks. It is obvious that she cares. She is articulate, communicative, and intuitive. She helps me come to in depth understandings of my needs. After talking to her for a couple days all my apprehension to use Better Help was gone. I am a dip my toes in kind of person but with Julie I jumped and she has done an amazing job and I cannot wait to see what’s to come. I cannot even stress this enough. Julie is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!
Julie is absolutely amazing! Almost every time we talk, I actually leave the conversation feeling positive, hopeful, and determined. Julie helped me find that by encouraging, supporting, and validating me, my parts, and my experiences. I still have a long way to go, and paying for therapy with no steady income is hard, but I am confident that she can help me learn to navigate and manage my C-PTSD/Complex trauma, and other comorbid disorder(s).
Julie takes the time to listen and provides helpful practical tips to help you feel better. She genuinely cares and I’m so thankful for her!
Julie is AMAZING! Her positive outlook and energy are contagious. She has given me so much insight into who I am, and why I react to things the way I do. She’s the best!!!
Julie is an amazing therapist and I would highly recommend her to anyone. She's genuine and real and I connected with her almost immediately. During each session and in each message, I feel heard and as though I matter.
Julie is so supportive and non judgemental. She explains why I feel the way I do in a way I can understand which helps me to recognize that I’m not alone. She pushes me to do my best, but also encourages me to take a step back and breathe. She has given me the best experience on this app, I am so grateful to have been matched with her.
I’m loving working with her and feel she really empathizes and understands me and my situation. It’s encouraging and feels good to be able to write to her when something’s on my mind and then within 24 hours receive a thoughtful response. That instant gratification and feedback has been motivating. Also, the “just checkin in” message before the live session made me more engaged and feel less like a burden. Which I realize is just my own crap projection lol. Her personality type analysis and explanation has been interesting and her referrals to outside resources has given me proactive things to do so it feels that I’m making progress outside sessions as well. I appreciate her patience as I tend to ramble often like in this review. So yeah, 10 out of 10, would highly recommend!
I’ve really enjoyed my therapy with Julie. It hasn’t been long, but I feel my eyes have already been opened to looking at certain situations in a better light. My shoulders feel a little less heavy. I am excited to keep working through my issues because I feel Julie truly cares & wants to show me the best ways to navigate through my life hurdles :)
Julie has been kind, compassionate and so helpful in helping me learn more about myself and navigate areas of my life where I want to make changes. She responds to messages promptly and is always willing to listen.
She is an amazing therapist who listens, validates, and addresses all of my issues.
Julie has been most caring and helpful. Her responses are always validating and relevant. I'm looking forward to work with her for a long time.
Julie has been professional, kind, and really helped with my situation. It is very complicated, and she has helped me feel like I am not losing my mind. She is compassionate and quick to respond. I highly recommend her as a counselor.
