Julia Honigfeld, LAC

Hello and welcome!
Thank you for visiting My Therapy Connection. My name is Julia and I am a Licensed Associate Counselor serving clients in New Jersey. I work primarily with teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety & depression.
While teenage years should be a carefree joyous time in life, it often gets overwhelming and leads to feelings of loneliness and confusion. The pressure of perfection is often fueled by social media, and this frequently leads to low self-esteem, body image issues, anxiety, and depression – all of which are areas that I am highly trained to address. The goal is for you to be well armed and ready to face the trials and tribulations as you are building your life. I hope you will find comfort in knowing that I want to provide you with a comfortable, safe, confidential space to work through whatever needs to be addressed.
I am committed to giving you the much-needed coping skills to work through struggles. We will work to find the proper tools to explore and you’re your identity. Whether that exploration is surrounding anxiety, depression, or relationship issues, I look forward to getting to know you and setting you on the path to happiness and fulfillment.
My goal at MTC is to provide a personalized, flexible, and, most of all, client-centered experience. I strive to tailor each session to fit the needs of every individual I have the pleasure of working with. My objective is to always bring empathy and understanding to our sessions. I am passionate about working with each person holistically and ensuring a collaborative effort to reach my clients’ goals.
My background includes having a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and Master’s Degree in Counseling from Thomas Jefferson University. I have a specialization in community and trauma counseling, and have experience working as a counselor with elementary school students. Additionally, I have worked one-on-one with children, adolescents, and young adults who are receiving therapy in the home, which is where I discovered my passion for working with young people. I am currently being trained at the highly regarded Beck Institute where I am working towards Certification in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
As a pre-licensed counselor, I work under the supervision of Jillian Young, LPC, ACS License Number 37PC00441700.
My focus at MTC is to support my clients during the most formative part of their lives, and I feel proud that the feedback I get from my clients is that I make them feel “welcomed and accepted” no matter who they are or what they are going through.
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with those closest to me. Whether it is going to the beach or walking my dog, I love being outdoors. To relax, I practice yoga, read, and exercise regularly.
If you or your child is unsure about therapy, or if you would like to speak with me about your unique challenges, I welcome you to contact me for a complimentary 10-minute telephone consultation. I look forward to working with you!
