What Clients are Saying About Julie:
I have known several therapists over the years, and Julie Gayer Kris is certainly special. I consulted her when my husband was in advanced stages of dementia, and she provided invaluable support and guidance, creating a safe, compassionate and supportive environment where I felt heard and understood. She has an extraordinary ability to listen deeply and provide insights that resonated with me, helping me navigate the emotional challenges and find the strength and patience within me to deal with his condition. She also guided me to resources for both my husband and myself, and her holistic approach made a significant difference in managing the day-to-day realities of dementia care. When he died, she came to his memorial, and while we are not now consulting professionally, she continues to check in. I highly recommend her.
