Our Therapists
Julia Vanover, LCSW, BCD
"I do this work because there is nothing like seeing someone grasp, maybe for the first time, that they are truly meant to be here. That their life is beyond valuable. I get so excited when things begin to fall together and we make substantial progress. It's simply cool to watch a person in severe pain change into someone who loves their life. Nothing could be better. I love how my background specializing in trauma and grief, compliments my years working with youth. It's like I can see how my clients' lives came together in their unique way. Using EMDR, Art Therapy and many other therapies we work together to clear difficult memories and beliefs. And we build on the strengths you already have but have been dismissing. This leads to the freedom to create a present and a future life you love."
Shannon Garcia, LCSW, BCD
“I enjoy treating all ages and backgrounds. I'm a long-time military spouse so I relate to my veteran clients but enjoy working with everyone. For many years I've worked on base and in 2012, at Davis-Monthan AFB, I decided to become a therapist. My background working with families having their highs and lows helps me to see the clearest route towards healing and connection. I have a patient, non-judgmental and supportive approach. I use EMDR, CBT, Family Systems and various other therapies to help families and individuals heal.”
