I was feeling lost and decided to contact Julia on a Saturday afternoon…it was the best gift I could have given myself! She has been a true blessing in my life! I felt understood from the first session and talking to her has been easy and felt very natural. She is non-judgemental and understood what I needed to work on right away. She helped me recognise and overcome my childhood traumas and made herself available to support me at any time. Thanks to her love and support, I now know my worth and I love the person I see every day in front of the mirror. Thank you Julia! ❤

“ I knew I needed to reach out to someone but had no idea how to start or where to turn. A friend recommended Julia and I’m so grateful that she did. Julia listened to my concerns and really helped me make sense of things and put them into perspective. Julia helped me beyond words with my work and home life and finding my authentic self I’ve been searching for for so long. Julia is an incredible listener, with wisdom and insight that is so motivating. In these uncertain times, I feel so reassured knowing she is someone I can to turn for help when needed”

"My husband and I had separated for a short time and so I decided to seek Julia’s help individually. She helped me feel comfortable with myself which was such a relief and a huge help. Soon after, my husband had his own sessions with Julia and was equally impressed. We both feel that if it wasn’t for Julia’s help and support we would not be together now. She is an incredible teacher and motivator and has taught us how to be together again and work as a couple. Thank you Julia for all your love and support. We couldn’t have done it without you......

"One of the first things I noticed about Julia was how loving and real she is. She really cares about her work, and her bubbly personality really attracted me to want to have counselling. She made it a pleasant experience. I thought counselling was going to be a bad experience for me, as it turns out I love it. I love the homework and I love life. Thank you Julia !!"

"I have been to Breath of Life counselling on a number of occasions in my life, and Julia has been brilliant. Her counselling skills are absolutely one of a kind. I wouldn’t ever go anywhere else. I am always recommending her services, because she has helped me immensely. I wouldn’t be the happy, stable, balanced, married person that I am today if it were not for Julia. Her approach is beautiful and sensitive, but she gets to the point and she knows immediately where the issues are. She is the most loving and compassionate person I’ve ever known.”

After 20 years of marriage my relationship with my wife had become estranged. While we did not know it at the time, we discovered that our lack of boundaries and poor communication skills had driven a wedge between us. Julia helped us see that our relationship had lost its way. Julia showed me the value of boundaries, communication and unconditional love. She taught me to trust myself and my feelings and to be honest and open about them. Julia enabled me to see that there are no sides, but instead a marriage is a path that two people share, and to be successful you must work together, as one. She taught me how to listen to people, and to trust my partner. When my wife’s mother passed away, we immediately contacted Julia, who assisted my wife through her grief. Her wisdom, nurturing, caring and overall professionalism were invaluable during this time. I feel honoured to have met Julia, and know that for the rest of my life she will be there for comfort and support whenever I stumble.

Meeting with Julia when my marriage went through a rough patch was, for me, a great education. I learnt so much about myself that helped me to work on the things I needed toward fixing my marriage. I learnt to focus on me and how to love my husband better, instead of focusing on him and how he could love me better. Most importantly, I learnt to love myself. Julia will not give you the answers, but - if you will let her - she will teach you to better love yourself, and through that to better love your spouse. She has done a great job of leading me to the proverbial water thus far, and while my husband and I have a way to go yet I know with the tools she has given us we can get there.
