Julia Fixsen
RTC | Registered Therapeutic Counsellor

Julia is a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor who specializes in Somatic Counselling. She offers a warm, compassionate, and grounding presence where clients can explore their emotional and physical experiences. Her work centers on helping individuals reconnect with their bodies, emotions, and inner wisdom.

At the heart of Julia’s approach is the belief that the body holds both our wounds and our wisdom. When people experience trauma, stress, and overwhelming emotions, they often disconnect from their bodies as a survival strategy. Through somatic work, Julia helps clients gently rebuild this connection, learning to listen to the body’s signals with compassion rather than fear. She honours the connection between body, mind, and spirit, and supports clients in reconnecting with their intuition, truth, and sense of self.

Julia works with people who feel overwhelmed, burnt out, anxious, depressed, or disconnected from themselves. Many of her clients arrive feeling “not enough,” exhausted by life’s demands, or unsure how to navigate emotional pain, trauma, chronic stress, or spiritual transition. She also supports individuals facing chronic illness, caregiver burnout, relational strain, and those seeking relief from long-held body shame. 

Julia’s approach is holistic and integrative, combining traditional counselling with somatic, spiritual, and mindfulness-based practices. She blends a range of modalities including Somatic Experiencing, Brainspotting, Attachment Therapy, Guided Imagery, DBT, Spiritual Counselling, and Mindfulness. She also has training as a meditation teacher, hypnotherapist, coach, and has completed many other continuing education courses.
