Julie Ayala Chahal, LPC, SEP, EMDR
You’ve worked hard to build success in your life, and from the outside it may look like you have it all together. But I know how it feels to carry stress, perfectionism, or unresolved pain beneath the surface. My work is about giving high-achievers like you a safe, focused space to reset, heal, and move forward with greater freedom. This work often shows up in your career or business — feeling stuck, burned out, overextended, or noticing the same internal patterns shaping your leadership, growth, or direction.
I specialize in supporting high-achieving women, leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals who want more than surface-level coping strategies. You’ve already proven you can succeed — now it’s about creating the same level of intention and clarity in your inner world.
I am not a passive counselor. My goal is to shift something inside you that allows you to make lasting changes in your life. I work with intention and specific therapeutic modalities, including EMDR and Somatic Experiencing, working to remove the blocks that keep these patterns in place. You will experience a sense of freedom and lightness when these blocks are removed, and you will understand who you are at your core in a way that you haven’t before.
I will guide you through the healing and growth process. If you’re ready to step into your next chapter with intention, I’d be honored to guide you.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I offer individual therapy to women specializing in Anxiety, Trauma & EMDR, Relationship Counseling, and Therapy Intensives. I am a certified EMDR therapist and has completed extensive training in the treatment of trauma including certification as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner.
