About Julie
Julie Sweeney is a white, self-identified fat, cis-gender woman with lived experience of mental health and body shame struggles as well as fibromyalgia and Type 2 diabetes. She works from a client-centered, anti-oppressive and social justice-oriented perspective specializing in supporting clients in finding freedom for themselves.
Registered with the OCSWSSW as a social service worker, Julie offers openness, honesty, and a willingness to be part of your journey in a way best suited to your needs.
Helping clients feel less alone in their struggles, Julie offers clients the opportunity to develop new skills and ways of thinking. Outside of her specialty with body image and self-esteem, she also works with clients experiencing anxiety, shame, and relationship issues, focusing on self-care and changing negative coping habits.
Julie enjoys helping people become aware, gain insight, and move into action to create lasting change. You would be a fit for her work if you’re interested in the change process and taking action toward making space for new energy in your life.
“I have been there,” Julie explains. “My personal story is what led me to this work, and I look forward to sharing when appropriate.” She works with a client-first approach and meets each individual where they are at. “I believe that we are all capable of change if that is what we want for our lives.”
