Julie Badras

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with 10+ years of experience in counseling and education, I specialize in working with adolescents who struggle with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, family conflict, grief, relationship/peer issues, self-esteem, academic stress, and college/career planning. Additionally, as a mother of two daughters, I understand the challenges of parenting and am passionate about providing parenting and family support in my counseling work as well.

Working in both the clinical mental health and school counseling fields, I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, psychoeducation, and mindfulness techniques to help youth overcome their challenges and achieve their emotional, social, and academic goals.

I like to create a wam and welcoming environment for clients where they feel comfortable to share their thoughts and feelings with me.
