Thank you, thank you. I am because of you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61cc688122a3e5708f740799/ffbb7e8b-e03e-4183-b6f8-cb0537c89f02/Headshot+1.jpg About Me I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing out of Durham, NC. In therapy, I work collaboratively with my clients to explore themselves and move towards the life they want and deserve. I have spent the last ten years facilitating space to explore identity and power, learning what it takes to build self-awareness and access authentic healing and organizing alongside my community to access the resources and care that we all deserve. I commit to building a therapy space that is genuine, connected, judgement-free and dignifying. I humbly embody my role as therapist as a white, queer, Jewish, non-binary person with chronic pain and class resources. I welcome discussion about and accountability around the ways that my identity interacts with our work together. When not working, I enjoy gardening, making pottery, baking bread, swimming and dancing. I am committed to several political organizing projects fighting for the liberation of all people. From Durham to Palestine, our freedom and healing are inherently connected. I grew up in Maine and have called North Carolina home for the last 8 years. Before opening up my practice, I worked at the Duke Children’s Evaluation Center and Duke Center for Eating Disorders as a clinical social worker. Before that, I worked at various agencies supporting low-income workers and survivors of intimate partner violence and as a crew member on local flower and vegetable farms. I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a degree in Sociology and Education in 2013 and graduated from University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill with a masters degree in Social Work in 2020. During my time at UNC, I saw therapy clients at the LGBTQ Center of Durham and at various clinics within the Duke system. https://www.juliavspringer.com/services daily 0.75 2022-04-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ede5d5c4e1eb54d74680dd4/1592257964989-8DUQISWFIW61SQVEJ0WJ/image-asset.png Services hand-drawn simplified needles in back acupuncture icon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ede5d5c4e1eb54d74680dd4/1592257873663-UIEP0NPR7WLXHEWM0EJF/image-asset.png Services hand-drawn armchair icon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ede5d5c4e1eb54d74680dd4/1592257884218-5M8IJDOP8N07F4IMOC4Z/image-asset.png Services hand-drawn empty pill bottle icon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ede5d5c4e1eb54d74680dd4/1592257949474-24WVPWDYQ2XUALLQ3P2D/image-asset.png Services hand-drawn aim target icon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ede5d5c4e1eb54d74680dd4/1591890351443-9BFPVD8JAZDMEYXJNIIQ/image-asset.jpeg Services - “I underestimated how hard it would be adjusting to working from home, but with Dr. Schell’s help, I was able to regain focus.” — OLIVIA R., CLOVE CLIENT https://www.juliavspringer.com/therapy-1 daily 0.75 2025-02-07 https://www.juliavspringer.com/get-started daily 0.75 2022-11-03 https://www.juliavspringer.com/our-approach daily 0.75 2025-05-12
