Meet Julia

Guided by presence, listening, and intentional care

I bring over 23 years of hands-on experience in holistic skincare and esthetics, integrating advanced facial techniques with nervous system–informed care and subtle energy awareness. My work has evolved through years of working closely with clients, where I learned that how we feel internally often reveals itself through the face. Over time, this integrated approach became the foundation of what I now call The True Beauty Way.

While working at M.A.C, I noticed how often women were covering what was happening with their skin rather than being supported at a deeper level. I felt a quiet pull to work with the skin, and beyond it.

 

That curiosity led me to become an esthetician with a simple intention: to help people relax, feel cared for, and feel at home in their own skin.

Over time, clients shared that they didn’t just look better, they felt better. More settled. More like themselves. Those moments revealed the deeper layers involved in care and healing.

 

         Care becomes transformative when the body feels safe enough to respond.

As my relationship with plants deepened, skincare became another way to support this work. I began creating simple, intentional products to nourish the skin while supporting calm and balance. What started as something personal evolved into a small, thoughtfully made skincare line, created with the same care, presence, and respect I bring to my sessions.

My work is slow, intuitive, and responsive. Rather than following fixed protocols, I listen to what the body is communicating and work with subtle layers of tension, emotion, and readiness to soften. Care unfolds naturally when the nervous system feels supported.

Clients often describe feeling peaceful, embodied, seen, and held. That felt sense matters just as much as any visible change.

This approach has come to be known as The True Beauty Way, a philosophy of care that honors the connection between skin, nervous system, and inner life. It guides how I work with clients, how I create skincare, and how this work continues to evolve.

I am also mindful of lineage. My grandmother and great-grandmother were born in Real de Catorce, Mexico, and I am a descendant of the Huichol people. This connection informs my reverence for plants, listening, and care that honors more than what can be seen.

If you feel drawn to this work, you’re welcome to explore sessions.
