I'm Julie Bjelland, LMFT, Consultant, and Specialist in Late-Discovered Autism in Sensitive Women (AFAB).
As a neurodivergent psychotherapist, author, and founder of Sensitive Empowerment, my mission is to empower sensitive and neurodivergent individuals.
I am passionate about equipping you with the knowledge and tools to embrace your authentic self, optimize your mental and physical well-being, and reach your fullest potential—even in a world not set up for you.
Through my global support hub, I provide a wealth of resources, including online courses, the Sensitive Empowerment Community, a top-ranked podcast, insightful articles, and transformative webinars. My work focuses on reducing overwhelm, balancing the sensitive nervous system, and empowering you to truly flourish.
As a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, I am committed to creating a safe, inclusive space for all. I also prioritize support for BIPOC individuals within my community by offering scholarships and dedicated safe spaces, ensuring that everyone has access to the resources they need to thrive.
