Meet Julie! I am a Master’s student with Yorkville University completing my Counselling and Psychology degree. I bring a rich and diverse background, bringing unique perspectives and genuine understanding to my practice. As a single mother, a competitive three-day event rider, animal enthusiast, and a seasoned police officer with over 21 years of service, I have cultivated resilience, empathy, and a deep commitment to helping others navigate life’s challenges. My journey began in law enforcement and this experience granted me invaluable insights into crisis management, conflict resolution, and trauma-informed care. Throughout my policing career, I have worked with people from all walks of life, supporting individuals and families through some of their most difficult moments. My work has reinforced my belief in the power of connection, trust, and holistic support. I am excited to combine my love for animals with my passion for personal growth and development into my counselling practice.
