Julianna Evans
Intern Counselor at Hilltop Counseling
Julianna or "Jules" is a graduate student at Colorado Christian University, where she is studying Clinical Mental Health Counseling and pursuing her LPCC license. Julianna strives to work collaboratively with clients and is open to discussing any issue in session. She is excited to work with clients of any age or life stage, but she is particularly passionate about working with young women who have experienced trauma.
Her personal orientation to counseling is primarily rooted in Person-Centered Therapy, but she will often integrate a variety of additional theoretical orientations and trauma-informed modalities to better fit her clients’ needs. Julianna will align session with the client’s goals, not her own, and is sensitive to moving through therapy at the client’s pace. She believes that understanding is the basis of care and hopes to be a warm, empathetic person who prioritizes client welfare and a strong therapeutic relationship. When counseling clients, Julianna will focus on maintaining a safe and comfortable atmosphere, in which clients feel heard, understood, and valued. She is supervised by Catharyn Fite, LPCC, CST.
