Julie Krogstad, LMFT

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a trauma-informed approach, offering a variety of therapeutic methods tailored to your unique needs.

I help individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges and build deeper, more meaningful connections. I offer a safe and supportive space to explore personal growth, emotional healing, and relationship dynamics. I work collaboratively with my clients, using a combination of proven therapeutic methods to support healing, build self-awareness, and create lasting change. Whether you're struggling with personal issues, relationship challenges, or past trauma, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

I specialize in polyvagal theory and attachment theory, which help guide my work in understanding emotional regulation and relationship dynamics. For trauma-specific work, I am certified in EMDR, a highly effective trauma treatment, and use Somatic Experiencing (SE) to help clients release trauma stored in the body.

For couples, I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman Method Couples Therapy (level one), which help foster secure and emotionally fulfilling relationships. I am also a certified Prepare and Enrich Facilitator and trained in Discernment Counseling, designed to help couples clarify their relationship direction.

In addition, I’m a certified spiritual director, providing support for clients seeking to integrate their spiritual journey into therapy. While my personal faith background is Christian, I welcome clients from all faiths (or no faith tradition at all).

My prior career as a pharmacist gives me a deep understanding of how medications affect both mental and physical health, which allows me to support clients in navigating the impact of prescribed medications on their overall well-being.

My goal is to guide you toward healing, growth, and stronger relationships, helping you live a more authentic, whole-hearted life.
