Sound therapy is an ancient healing practice found in cultures around the world, from Tibetan singing bowls to Aboriginal didgeridoo traditions. Because everything in our universe vibrates at specific frequencies, sound is a scientifically supported tool for guiding consciousness and restoring balance. During a session, resonant sounds from crystal alchemy bowls, voice, and other instruments penetrate the body at a cellular level — helping reduce tension, ease anxiety, and align the energetic centers of the body (chakras).

Private sound therapy sessions are 90 minutes and take place in Julia's South Seattle studio or in your home. You simply lie down comfortably and receive the healing sounds of Julia's voice, crystal singing bowls, and other instruments. Many clients experience deep relaxation, stress relief, emotional release, and a sense of renewed energy. Sessions are tailored to your individual needs.

A sound bath is a group experience where participants lie down and are immersed in sound, typically offered at public venues and events. A private session is one-on-one and allows for a more personalized approach designed specifically around your needs, intentions, and what's alive for you in that moment. Private sessions also offer the option of having bowls placed on the body for maximum vibrational therapy.

Crystal alchemy singing bowls are instruments made from quartz crystal and other elements that produce rich, resonant tones with long sustain. When played, they create powerful vibrational frequencies — including binaural beats — that the body absorbs at the cellular level. Julia works with these bowls as her primary instrument in both sound therapy and vocal coaching sessions.

Therapeutic vocal coaching goes beyond traditional singing lessons. It's a healing practice that uses the voice as a tool for self-discovery, emotional release, and nervous system regulation. It's for anyone who wants to reclaim their authentic voice, express emotions more freely, release tension or stuck energy in the body, feel more confident singing, or deepen their connection to themselves — regardless of musical experience.

Not at all. Julia's therapeutic vocal work is open to everyone. The focus is not on performance or technical skill — it's on using your voice as a healing instrument. Many clients come simply wanting to feel more at home in their own bodies, express themselves more freely, or work through emotional blocks.

Private sound therapy sessions are $175 for 90 minutes. Vocal coaching sessions are $150 for 75 minutes. If you purchase a package of 6 or more vocal coaching sessions, you receive a 10% discount. Sliding scale options are available upon request. House calls can also be arranged for an additional fee.

Julia is based in South Seattle, Washington. Private sound therapy sessions are available in her studio or as house calls. Vocal coaching sessions are offered both in-person at her Seattle studio and virtually via Zoom, making it easy to work with Julia no matter where you are.

Julia facilitates sacred sound-making and song improvisations specifically designed for processing grief and connecting with the ancestors. Drawing on her Celtic heritage and studies with shamanic practitioners and sound healers around the globe, she guides individuals and groups in using their voices to honor those who have come before — transforming grief into a felt sense of connection across time.

Many clients experience profound shifts within a single session. That said, committing to a series of sessions allows for a more gradual awakening process that supports lasting change and the successful adoption of new habits and mindsets — which is also why series packages are offered at a discounted rate. Some people start with a single session just to experience the work before deciding whether to continue.

Yes! Julia has released an album called Ancestral Sound Journey: Connecting to Ancient Wisdom — a deeply relaxing recording of voice and crystal singing bowls intended to support ancestral healing and connection to the unseen realms. You can listen via the Listen page on her website. It's a wonderful way to experience her sound before working together in person.

Julia brings together over 30 years of experience as a professional singer-songwriter, performer, and healing arts practitioner. Her approach is informed by her Celtic heritage, intensive study with shamanic practitioners and sound healers worldwide, and her own deeply personal journey of using sound to regulate her nervous system and awaken her authentic voice. Every session is curated organically in real time — meaning Julia responds to what you need in that specific moment, rather than following a fixed script.
