It is time to elevate your FAMILY ...
“Your child’s body holds the story. Whether it’s a challenging latch, endless meltdowns, or just a sense that something isn’t quite settling — there’s more beneath the surface. Craniosacral therapy gently restores balance from the inside out.”
Let's Connect:
I’m not just a practitioner — I’m a mother who was once desperate for answers.
When my middle daughter was born, she struggled to latch. We did everything “right” — the tongue tie release, the lactation consultant visits, the positioning tweaks — yet nothing changed. Her little body was tense, her hands always clenched, and feeding felt like a battle.
Then we tried craniosacral therapy, and everything shifted. In one gentle session, her whole body softened. Her hands fell open behind her as she slept — something she’d never done before. When she latched again, it was like meeting her for the first time.
That moment changed everything I believed about healing. I realized she didn’t just need a release — she needed her body to unwind, to feel safe enough to function as it was designed to.
As she grew, we uncovered more layers: a genetic MTHFR mutation that made her extremely sensitive to folic acid — a common “health” ingredient that was actually worsening her emotional reactivity. Watching her body and brain struggle at such a young age lit a fire in me to understand the why behind it all.
So I went deeper. I studied functional and integrative health, nutrition, and the nervous system — learning how biochemical and emotional regulation intertwine. What started as a mother’s search for answers for myself and my children became a calling: to help families find peace in their bodies, clarity in their health, and connection in their parenting.
Now, through Charm City Craniosacral, I blend craniosacral therapy, lactation consulting, and integrative health coaching to support infants, mothers, and families from the very beginning — helping bodies unwind, nervous systems regulate, and bonding flourish naturally.
Because our children deserve peace in their bodies — and parents deserve to know that healing is possible.
Namaste,

About me
If your baby is fussy at the breast, popping on and off, or you're dealing with pain, low supply, or clogged ducts — you're not doing anything wrong. We'll work together to assess latch, oral function, and nervous system stress so you both can feed with ease.
Lactation consultant
Colic, eczema, constipation, slow weight gain, neurodivergence (ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia) — these aren’t “just kiddo things.” They’re signs of deeper imbalance. I help you understand your child’s biochemistry, gut health, and food needs so they can thrive, naturally.
If your baby has had a tongue tie release (or is preparing for one) but still struggles with tension, torticollis, nursing, or sleep — Craniosacral Therapy helps their body let go of stored patterns so the release can fully integrate. One session can change everything.

BEFORE AFTER
Lactation, tongue tie support, and nutrition education are seamlessly integrated into your baby or child's craniosacral therapy session — because nothing in the body heals in isolation.

We had the best experience with Julie. We brought our less than one month old baby here for body work before the tongue tie release. Our baby was immediately at ease in the beautiful studio space and Julie was such an amazing resource to me as a new mom. Would definitely recommend!

Julie was the first person to help my baby determine root cause for her symptoms and bring her to a path of healing after months and months of distress and countless doctors visits and appointments and diagnostic tests. Julie is insightful, empathetic, caring, holistic, nurturing and a problem solver. Her office environment is a safe space for vulnerability and is filled with a therapeutic atmosphere. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Julie took such amazing care of my newborn. He was born with torticollis and tongue tie. Her gentle care helped bring his body back to a good center to set him up for a success in all his milestones. Julie also cared for my worried first time mama heart with lots of reassurance, affirmation, and very helpful suggestions. I would recommend her to anyone.
