Founder & Clinical Director
Julia Markovich, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from North Carolina State University. I specialize in the assessment and treatment of OCD and anxiety-related disorders and work with adults and college students experiencing anxiety, stress, and related concerns.
Julia provides Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP)—the gold-standard, evidence-based treatment for OCD and anxiety-related disorders. ERP involves gradually and systematically approaching feared thoughts, sensations, or situations while reducing compulsive or avoidant responses. Treatment is collaborative, structured, and personalized, with a focus on helping clients experience meaningful improvement within weeks.
Her therapeutic approach is holistic and integrative, with attention to the interaction between nervous system regulation, emotional processes, cognition, behavior, and lived context.
Interventions are thoughtfully selected to support flexibility, resilience, and sustainable change.
I have advanced training in ERP, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic and mindfulness-based approaches, trauma-informed care, attachment-based work, and motivational interviewing.
Julia is currently completing the Yoga X program through Stanford Psychiatry, an evidence-informed training integrating yoga, mindfulness, and neuroscience to support stress regulation and mind–body awareness.
She provide an affirming, nonjudgmental space and welcome LGBTQ+ clients. My goal is to help clients develop practical skills, insight, and confidence so they can engage more fully in their lives.
