✨ Welcoming Julia Tarr, LCSW to our team! ✨
Hello! My name is Julia, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. As a mother of three young kids, I chose to go back to school to gain the necessary skills to support women and birthing people through all the complex pathways leading to and managing parenting. I vividly remember bringing my youngest in a carrier to the introductory session for the Master of Social Work program at UNC—where I discovered the profound impact of social work and fell in love with its purpose.
I am a cisgender white woman with a deep commitment to the inherent worth and dignity of every individual person. I endeavor to bring inclusive, trauma- informed, anti-racist, LGBTQIA+ affirming, reproductive justice, and feminist principles to the forefront of my work and life. My clinical practice draws on evidence based approaches, including Motivational Interviewing, Integrated Behavioral Health models, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, along with specialized training in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders. I maintain an active Perinatal Mental Health Certification through Postpartum Support International (PSI).
My approach centers on creating a safe, supportive place where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Together, we’ll build insight into what’s working well in your life or possibly not so well and identify areas that may need change. I deeply value the opportunity to listen to your stories, reflect on their meaning, and collaborate with you to enhance your overall well-being. I look forward to our work together.
