Julia's method with us was really effective. I loved how the focus was on the time in between sessions (3-4 weeks), with homework to do as a couple or individually in view of the next session. This made us feel empowered along the process, and allowed us to test things out by ourselves rather than relying on a moderator only. I believe that we achieved results faster this way; after 3 sessions we felt we could continue independently.
Personally, we connected so well with Julia, felt that she had the back of both of us, but at the same time she was keeping us in line! She can be a little "tough love", and maybe not everyone likes that style, but it was helpful in order to open our eyes and make us confront certain realities. I've been to other therapists before where I felt direction-less and that they were just diving me deeper into my own perspectives. Julia is different, you may or may not like what she has to say, but she will trigger a reaction and there'll be something in it for you to work on. I found her always respectful and light hearted.
A few months on, we're still using some of the techniques Julia taught us and would not think twice about returning to Julia if needed again in the future. Would most warmly recommend her to any couple in Berlin or also remotely (our sessions were all remote and it still worked very well).
