About
Why choose Julie?
When I became a parent in 2000, I no longer wanted to work in the City but have time to be around my two children. This meant a major rethink on life, and I retrained as a NCT Antenatal Teacher, Postnatal counsellor and doula. Supporting new parents since 2009 has been a wonderful journey and having studied psychology it felt natural to retrain as a psychotherapist and support those who suffered with addiction, anxiety, bereavement, depression and relationship challenges. It has been an honour to support new parents and observe the dance between mother, father and baby and this experience provided me with incredible insight into the biological and spiritual development of families, from utero to adulthood.
Julie's Background
Link to Local Therapists
I believe in a holistic approach to healing both mental and physical health and in early 2015 I set up a local professional network bringing together 20 holistic practitioners. The aim of this network is to enhance my business knowledge and enable me to signpost clients to an exceptionally high standard of support. These connections are the life blood of my work as Bessel Van Der Kolk states so eloquently ‘The Body Keeps the Score ’. My network 'Link to Local Therapists' meets every 6 weeks to support, connect and learn from each other. Click on the logo to access amazing practitioners in South West London.
Psychotherapist
In 2018, I retrained as a Psychotherapist via CPCAB (Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body) and I am now a member of BACP
(British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), an ethical framework body. All members commit to the BACP code of conduct and are insured to practice.
Antenatal Teacher & Postnatal Counsellor
& Doula
From 2004 I commenced 5 years of academic and vocational training to prepare and support new parents through childbirth and the first three years with their children. This involved facilitating classes and supporting midwives and Health Visitors at St Georges Hospital, Tooting. But also I spent many hours working with parents in their home and helping them build confidence to become parents. During this time I also set up a business network of 20 holistic practitioners. We would meet once a month to discuss business strategies and expand our continuing professional development. From this network Link to Local Therapist was created.

Clapham Baby Show
When the Link to Local Therapist network began we specialised in supporting new parents and decided to introduce this wonderful group of experts to the public. We launched our first Clapham Baby Show in Autumn 2015 - this show was such a success after two shows we had to move it to a larger venue. In order to meet demand, we added lots of businesses outside of our network. Each show was a ticketed event but with free entry. Exhibitors paid for a stand and we sponsored a local charity via a raffle. Please click on the video below to see how we supported new parents. We held 5 shows in 3 years but decided to not reopen the doors after the 2020 pandemic. The organisers went onto to new ventures.
