One of the owners, supervisors, and marriage and family therapists at Blackbird Counseling LLC.

Justine uses a collaborative conversational approach in therapy with room for physical activity to help “move” uncomfortable feelings from the body. Her favorite thing about being a therapist is having the honor of listening to so many different life stories and expe​riences. Anyone who has worked with Justine will tell you that she is very passionate about Halloween, for the history, spirituality, and the freedom of expression it encourages.

 “The song of my soul is the sound of the cello. While I am not very good at playing it and it was not my first choice, it holds memories of compromise between family and individuality. Its sounds are beautiful and versatile, strong and delicate, high and low, loud and soft; it often disappears into the background supporting the greater picture, but when given the space to stand out, it is truly magnificent.” -Justine Carlucci​
