Julie Plutt

I've worked with many therapists for a long time, before and during my time in NOCD, and I can confidently say that Julie Plutt is one of the MOST smart and effective therapists I've ever had. After only working with her for the past 1.5 months (and frankly, even within the first few weeks), I have felt the pillars of my approach to life shift, through practical changes which Julie has helped me implement through ERP in session/for homework, that is also ADHD-friendly. She is also kind, but in a more professional, practical, goal-oriented manner—she doesn’t indulge my chatty, wandering thoughts, in order to keep me on track with tasks in session that align with my broader goals. At the end of every session, she sends me an organized list of homework tasks that are manageable, and through this work I am more productive and able to start chipping away at the significant shame (and consequently, chronic depression) that I have carried most all of my life. While I understand that change doesn’t happen overnight, my work with Julie realistically reinforces the idea that evolution is possible over time—and this hope is as much of a gift, as is the higher quality of life I am starting to gain with her professional guidance.

Julie is absolutely amazing. This is the best therapy I have ever had for my OCD. She is so experienced on my subtype (sensory motor). When I was doing mental compulsions without even realizing it, she called me out and taught me how to respond to the obsession differently through ERP and ACT. I feel so safe to tell her everything I go through because I know she understands exactly what I'm going through and will never judge me. Thank you Julie!

Thank you for asking about “my most recent session.” I get very frustrated with these questions. Specifically, you asked me, “ Hello, Please rate your session now by texting back 1-5, "5" being terrific and "1" being not so great.” I am very pleased with my therapist and gave a 5 for the question being asked…about this specific question which is about the session I just completed…nothing more. Then I get a response, “That's wonderful. We are so happy to hear that therapy is going well for you. Thank you for sharing where you're at, we appreciate it.” You did not ask me how therapy was going. You did not ask me to rate where I’m at. These are very different questions. They are complicated questions that require thoughtful processing and responses. While I think NOCD is now working better for me, mostly because of the therapist I’m now working with, I politely ask that you be more careful about the questions asked and your interpretation about what the responses may mean. I am very pleased with my therapist. The methods and strategies being explored are more appropriate and relevant for me. Where I’m at, is a work in progress that can’t be easily summed up by a number of stars or a thumbs up icon.

Julianna is an authentic force in the world of therapy. She is client-first who holds me accountable to my recovery as she puts me in the driver seat and acts as my navigation and strategist to get to where I need to be. She is so genuine and truly is a great example for her peers.
