Julie Evanson, LCSW, Arise AK LLC

As a compassionate and experienced clinical social worker, I offer support to individuals and couples facing complex illness, stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and end-of-life challenges. With a master’s degree in social work and postgraduate certification in palliative and end-of-life care, my approach is grounded in empathy, gentleness, and encouragement. I take a person-centered approach to therapy, tailoring our work together to your unique needs and experiences. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your feelings and find strength through life’s most difficult moments. Along with my therapy dog, Mabel, I provide a comforting and supportive environment that fosters healing and connection. Whether you’re navigating a major life transition or seeking support in the face of illness, I am here to guide you with understanding and care.
