Julie Grande-Strathdee (They/she)

Accepting Clients

Hi! I’m Julie. I’m a queer identified, gender non-conforming therapist. Let’s see if we’d be a good fit to work together.

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in California

About My Clients

You're overwhelmed, overstimulated, and searching for relief, and quite frankly, getting pretty desperate. That "best life" others seem to live feels just beyond reach, with a little progress one day, then sliding all the way back to where you started. It's exhausting. You logically know you've overcome so much, but where is that strength everyone says you have?

My Background and Approach

Together, we can foster compassion for the coping skills you've used to survive. These strategies deserve acknowledgment and appreciation because they have kept you alive. Only with the proper support can we begin to liberate ourselves from strategies that may have fulfilled their purpose. Through the use of practical tools, introspection, catharsis and humor we can reshape your approach to both inner and outer relationships and build a new sense of connectedness and security in the world. I work with adults and teenagers seeking relief from panic attacks and anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts, self harm, gender dysphoria, sexual abuse, and childhood trauma and PTSD. I see folks looking for LGBTQ+ affirming therapy, and non-binary and transgender affirming care. I also write gender-affirming surgery letters with a one-time consultation.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
