Kirsten Juel
My name is Kirsten Juel. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I have been working in the helping field since 2009. I specialize in the family dysfunction of addiction and developmental trauma. My passion is freedom and helping people to have a more compassionate relationship with who they are and the life they live. I’m a therapist but also a fellow traveler.
I spent the first half of my life within the vortex of trauma and addiction and now I’m spending the second half riding the spiral of healing and recovery. I know the courage it takes to genuinely face ourselves and cultivate the humility and compassion needed to recover and grow. I would be honored to support you as you Reclaim what was lost in your effort to survive.
My guiding principles are humility, curiosity, and compassion and I will use these values to foster a deep and attuned relationship to hold your pain, vulnerability and radiant, knowing Self.
My favorite people are the outcasts, the misfits, the scapegoats, the weirdos. We have a special role in this wild life, and I’d love to support you as you reclaim your wholeness and belonging.
I believe in your possibility, and I will use my reverence for the human spirit, my intuition, and trust in our relationship, and my extensive training and education to help you to see, understand, and celebrate the preciousness of you and your life experience.
