- LU, IBCLC, Ithaca, NY

Julie, you are good at so many things, and it’s hard to capture the magic that you bring, but here are some of the things that stand out to me:

Making the client feel safe. Talking with you is like finally having the safety I needed as a little girl. My whole heart gives a sigh of relief. 

Holding very difficult information in exactly the right way, with calm, compassion, pragmatism, never shocked, never shaming or judgmental. Never surprised. 

Remembering everything! I don’t know if you write it all down or you have a crazy auditory memory or what, but your recall of specific events and my overall arch of experiences is incredible. It makes the client feel truly heard. 

Intuition. You have a powerful gift for knowing the right questions to ask, the right places to go, when to wait for more to be said, when there is something essential in a little piece of what is said. 

Timing–goes with intuition. You never push forward with any kind of agenda. So many times things have gone in a different direction, needed to stop in the middle of a step of the release process, take a totally different turn. You are so deft at making those turns with the client. It’s a huge gift because it allows new and surprising information and important exploration that would not be possible if you could not make these turns so easily with the client. I am not articulating this well but it speaks to the nimbleness of your mind and your ability to process what is happening very quickly and stay with it, which seems to be a huge thing because when we’re working in the realm of childhood experiences and beliefs, things are not linear and logical like they may be with our adult thinking, and trying to force the narrative to be linear and logical will completely miss critical opportunities for discovery. 

You’re exceptional in your deep belief in the client and in your unconditional positive regard. You are exceptional at communicating that. That allows the client to dare to explore deep pain with honesty, because they know deep down that anything they encounter will not change your regard for them as a person. It allows them to begin to embody that same unconditional positive regard for themselves. 

You are amazing at bringing the kind of guided imagery pieces to the work. I am recalling one time where we created a small house on a riverbank for me to be in. It has stayed with me always and I go there often. The way you share the imagery, like the way we explored the two career paths, makes it incredibly effective in a way that simply “discussing” something is not. I think in images and I have the sense that you are excellent at intuiting what ways of thinking and exploring their inner landscape will resonate with the client the most.

Julie, to me you were nothing less than an angel — a messenger of divine love and connection. This is also the biblical understanding of an angel. Not the wings and stuff of the later romantic period, but almost always a regular person who happens to be dialed in to what is needed the most at a time of extreme crisis or confusion.

Your care, which extended throughout the week, made all the difference in life.  You surrounded death and loss with unexpected and unanticipated love.

Thank you, Julie, for being open, aware, vulnerable, and willing to be connective.  

- AB, School Administrator, Chapel HIll, NC

Before I hired Julie, I was “triggered” over 50% of the time. Now, as we conclude, even though my work is in the busiest, craziest seson of the year, I feel triggered less than 5% of the time.

I am calm, center, and peaceful.

- MG, Business Owner, Pittsboro, NC

It’s unbelievable all the connections and revelations you’ve helped me uncover. While meditating today, I realized just how much you’ve helped me release that I wouldn’t have accessed without your guidance.

My favorite thing to think about after our sessions is that the releasng continues and the healing continues to close the wounds inside that were holding me from being the Me I deserve to be and know I will be.

I am safe, I am whole, I am home.

Your. Work. Is. Important.

- CC, Singer, Denver CO

I call it ‘pulling a Julie’ — when you get me to an essential truth that creates a change. out of nowhere. And you do it every time.”

- FA, Attorney, Stockholm Sweden

I feel completely safe with your guidance. You are an angel on earth! 

- AF, Author & Activist, Los Angeles, CA

As I look back on the 18 months I’ve worked with Julie Nathanielsz, I’m astonished at the changes I’ve experienced as a result. I’m deeply grateful to her gentle guidance and profound wisdom.

I confess when my friend first introduced me to Julie, I was skeptical. After all, I’d worked with many (fine) therapists, wonderful yoga and meditation instructors, I’d gone to retreats of every imaginable kind. And though I had just suffered a trauma, I wasn’t sure there was anything more I could learn about how to heal.

Still, after reading about Eclipse Therapy, I was curious, and so I jumped in. At first, I simply loved our weekly “conversations.” I was soothed by Julie’s mellifluous voice, wowed by her creativity, comforted by her humor and gentle nature—all were balm.

After some months, I began to notice that I had changed, and was changing still—in small ways and large. I realized that working with Julie was healing and nourishing my soul and mind.

Julie is a true healer, in every sense of the word. She is honest, insightful, softspoken but firm. There are no hiding places when working with her, but she is not the least scary. The work she does is magical to me—I don’t understand it why it works, but I feel its deep impact.

- TK, Sustainability Leadership & Executive, Santa Monica, CA

My weekly work with Julie got me through the deep troughs of post-lay-off self-doubt and depression. I wanted to undertake a pretty big pivot which required a tremendous amount of vision and courage. Working with Julie, I learned to find what ignited me and follow it, thread by thread.  This built my path and created the energy I wanted – and needed – to have when I walked into a room.

It’s tough to envision great new heights when you are feeling low.  But I got that big pivot job!  Looking back at my notes I was amazed to see that 9 months earlier I had outlined my wish list of what I wanted, including some rather nuanced points, and I achieved every single one of them!!

I tell people that Julie is my “energy coach.”  It’s the best way I can explain the power of the work that will help manifest your dreams.  I recommend her regularly to people looking for more in their lives.

- WRW, Hypnotherapist & Speaker, Seattle, WA

Amazing!

With Julie’s guidance and gentle, on-point questions, I was able to get to the core of some issues that had been holding me back for too long.

During our session my entire body became a garden blossoming with healthy new growth. I sensed flowers blooming everywhere, including several money trees as I raised my vibration.
How symbolic as Julie worked to help me anchor an expanded sense of self-love, self-respect and self-confidence. Thank you, Julie!

- LS, Nurse, Ithaca NY

Julie, your love hit me like a much needed wave. Thank you. I don’t know what spring you drink from, but your luminousness is so refreshing.

- LU, Writer, Ithaca NY

Julie, this work is unbelievably effective. I am reveling. 🙂

So much movement in such a short time. So much new knowing/feeing that is very solid. And very reachable in real time situations. I think about and lean on the work we’ve done every day. I’m just blown away.

- NO, Musician, Los Angela, CA

After just one session with Julie I felt like a weight that I had been carrying around for so many years began to lift off my shoulders. She taught me that old truths can be replaced with new ones.

- DW, Business Owner, Wyoming

Your kindness & your voice & your patience encourage me and move me through experiences into my whole self.

 

- KMQ, Professor, Canterbury, England

I feel a huge sense of relief.
I don’t have to live in fear at every turn anymore.
I didn’t know I was doing this, but I was, in my personal life and professional life.

I feel so free now. I feel…secure! I feel less that I need to push to make things happen. I’m allowing them to unfold.

- MG, Solopreneur, Saxapahaw NC

I feel a sense of true work and progress.  I’ve worked with 3 other life coaches and I can’t explain how their work seems almost trivial to what you’ve done for me.  You continue to blow me away with what you are able to help me uncover.  

- HW, Educator, Durham NC

I’m not a deeply spiritual person, I’d say I lean to the skeptical side and have a hard time trusting (in general.) So it took energy to willfully suspend disbelief that I even have access to a wiser self. However, during the session I dropped into a state of very deep relaxation, with big ocean breaths. I heard answers loud and clear. 

It is much easier to drop into a relaxed, safe feeling space. I’ve had noticeably less anxiety.

- BF, Digital Product Design, Los Angeles CA

I realized I failed to tell you just how much you’ve helped me. It’s an intangible thing, our time together…I don’t know how to describe it other than to say that it’s been a huge part of getting me back on my feet, from a very dark place. 

- JS, Massage Therapist, Pittsboro NC

We touched into mysteries the other day.  As I said, I was along for the ride and it did indeed take me into some unexpected places.  Thank you for guiding me with such tenderness & clarity. The experience was precious and awesome (full of awe).  I was gifted with a luminous, undulating presence whom I will call in for support in the future.  Generally I feel less fearful.  There’s a buzz of fear & anxiousness that I am used to feeling that seems absent.  I feel lighter.

- RB, Executive Assistant, Chapel Hill NC

Julie, I will be forever grateful for you. You gave m a chance at one of the lowest points in my life. Thank you for all hte kindness you have shown you. You have been a blessing and a light in my life.
