Julia Scarfone is a Licensed Master of Social Work with a Bachelor of Social Work from Iona University and a Master of Social Work from Yeshiva University. She specializes in trauma, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, substance use disorders, ADHD, and mood disorders, and holds a certification in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), a structured, evidence-based approach that is particularly effective for clients working on emotional regulation and distress tolerance.

Julia’s approach is client-centered, strengths-based, and grounded in the belief that every person has the capacity to grow and improve, regardless of the obstacles they face. She works to create an empathetic, nonjudgmental space where clients can begin to heal, processing their thoughts and emotions, building practical coping skills, and moving toward a life that reflects their best self.

In addition to her clinical work, Julia serves on the clinical board of the National Alliance of Social Workers in Sports, bringing her professional expertise to the support of athletes navigating mental health challenges.
