Julie Borden, LCSW

Julie Borden is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a master's degree in Social Welfare and more than twenty years of clinical experience. As an LCSW - which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker - she has worked with people facing grief and loss, stress management, parenting challenges, depression, and relationship communication, among other concerns. She frames therapy as a process of gaining perspective - a way to step back from a familiar, close-up view of life and notice patterns and assumptions that may be limiting change.

Her approach blends insight with practical action. Julie emphasizes awareness of relationship patterns and the value of questioning long-held assumptions, while also encouraging small, concrete steps that can lead to meaningful change over time. She often suggests beginning with modest experiments in behavior, as small successes can create a ripple effect and reveal options that previously felt out of reach.

The work she does aims to help people live more authentically and with intention, making deliberate choices instead of following old habits without reflection. Moments of new understanding are a central part of her practice, and she takes satisfaction in witnessing those shifts when clients discover a wider range of possibilities for their lives.

If Julie seems like a potential fit, she invites prospective clients to share their story and considers therapy a collaborative process focused on finding clarity, greater ease, and confidence that support a more hopeful future.
