At the Awakened Mind Institute (AMI), we offer expert, compassionate LGBTQ+ psychotherapy and gender counseling throughout the Denver Metro area and the world! We understand that individual identity is fluid and evolving, and we respect the unique qualities that make you who you are. Through evidence-based therapeutic approaches, along with the insights of Buddhist psychology, we help you build a more peaceful, authentic future with your friends and families.
Ms. Julia Wilson is AMI’s gender and identity specialist. She is a highly trained psychotherapist and dedicated Buddhist practitioner of 20 years, with hundreds of hours of instruction from renowned Buddhist masters.
Our LGBTQ+ psychotherapy blends mindfulness, compassion, and wisdom to help you understand yourself in the present moment. With Buddhist psychology and contemplative psychotherapy, we explore where you’ve been and where you’d like to go next on your personal journey.
As Ms. Wilson explains: “I’m committed to helping people have difficult conversations, stand up for their boundaries, and feel safe in their communities. It’s an honor to support you in creating that space.”
Ms. Wilson excels at making complex topics clear and helping clients “connect the dots.” She has extensive experience treating anxiety, mood, and eating disorders, as well as trauma (PTSD, C-PTSD) and other challenges.
