Julie Spokane

Julie Spokane, LCSW, ACSW received her MSW from Tulane University. She has over 15 years of clinical experience working in various therapeutic settings such as: private practice, therapeutic day school and in and out patient psychiatric hospitals. Ms. Spokane has worked extensively with individuals around issues of depression and anxiety. She has a strong concentration in women's issues as it pertains to relationships, divorce, infidelity, adoption, infertility, addictions, eating disorders and domestic violence.

Ms. Spokane utilizes cognitive, behavioral and psychodynamic approaches in assisting her clients to achieve increased fulfillment in their lives. Her goal for all her clients is that they develop new strategies for coping in their relationships with family, friends and work. Ms. Spokane believes that “we all attempt to manage life's daily struggles as best as we can” but sometimes our means of coping are no longer effective. Therefore, therapy can be a safe arena to develop and implement alternative ways of thinking, communicating and behaving in order to achieve our goals.

Ms. Spokane's therapeutic style is warm and inviting but she is direct with her clients. If you are interested in making an appointment with Ms. Spokane, she is available in our Gurnee office.
