Julianne Guinasso

As a therapist, I understand what it's like when you've spent so long putting others first that you've lost touch with who you are underneath. You might be exhausted in a way sleep can't fix. You scan others' emotions constantly while losing track of your own. You wonder if there's still a "you" beneath all that adapting. Often, it's grief that finally makes this disconnection impossible to ignore. Grief takes many forms. It can be the loss of someone you love, the ending of a friendship, a relationship that changed shape, a job or identity you outgrew, the state of the world, or the quiet loss of who you used to be. These experiences crack us open in ways that invite deeper exploration, if we have support to move through them. I offer trauma-informed therapy that honors your whole experience and helps you reconnect with your inner wisdom. Together, we'll honor what you're grieving while exploring the different aspects of who you are through compassionate inquiry, working toward a life where you can stop performing and start recognizing yourself again. We'll integrate the parts of yourself you've had to hide or disconnect from. This creates space for you to feel more settled in your own body, get clearer about what you actually want, and build relationships where you can be real instead of just helpful. This work is about reclaiming your wholeness, realigning with your true values, and reconnecting with yourself and the communities that matter to you. I work with people navigating grief and loss, those who identify as neurodivergent, and anyone experiencing burnout, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Outside of the therapy room, I find joy in being in nature, spending quality time with my community, engaging in social advocacy, exploring spiritual practices and wisdom traditions, making playlists and dancing, and reading. All adult individuals, ethnicities, cultural backgrounds, and sexual/gender identities are welcomed.
