I can't say enough about Dr. Dalsimer. The problems that I was having with a particular family…read moremember amounted to something that I truly believed was beyond repair. I begrudgingly entered into family therapy so that I could at least demonstrate that I "tried." Never did I think that the relationship could not only be repaired but could be positive and joyful.

I am truly grateful for Dr. Dalsimer, her patience, wisdom, experience, and methods.

She not only made it easy to open up about the mess that I'd made of my life, but neither did she shy away from helping me take responsibility for my own errors. Always gently encouraged me to find my own solutions. I have suggested her to every friend, or family member, who I knew was having trouble finding their way forward. She seems to always have just the right touch to nudge people in a direction that, as she says, they knew was the right way to go... but needed an impartial, caring person to help them discover what their hearts were already wise to. Seriously ~ after trying more therapists than I care to admit, I can recommend others to run, not walk, to Julie! Let her help you as she did me.. to take back control of my life. As she's said to me, no one else can control our destinies but ourselves. If we don't surrender our decisions & responsibilities to others, we'll never have to feel like we're spinning out of control again. That's a priceless gift we can learn to give ourselves. Thanks again Julie!
