Julia Blanco

I am a licensed therapist (LCSW, CRAADC, CCDP-D) with over 20 years of experience helping clients get unstuck and reach their goals. I specialize in supporting individuals through difficult life transitions, depression, anxiety, and substance use. It is also my passion to help families safely navigate life when a loved one is struggling. Over the past two decades, it has been my honor to partner with many clients as they create real, positive changes in their lives. I tailor my approach using well-established, effective treatments such as Motivational Interviewing, CBT, ACT, and CRAFT.

I believe therapy should be a trusting relationship where we work together to help you envision the life you want and help you make it a reality. My style is collaborative and encouraging, focusing on helping you uncover your own motivation, confidence, and lasting solutions. I also specialize in helping family members of individuals with substance use disorders protect their own well-being and build meaningful, values-driven lives while more effectively supporting their loved one.

Our first session is all about learning your story, understanding your values, and beginning to build a trusting partnership. I create a collaborative environment where you are the expert on your own life. Together, we will map out your primary goals for therapy and establish a clear, positive direction for your journey forward.
