Couples, individual, and family therapy in Sarasota & Lakewood Ranch
You have built a life that works.
Something important inside it no longer does.
At Reclaim, we provide personalized couples therapy, marriage counseling, individual therapy, and family therapy with in-person office locations in Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch, Florida, and convenient telehealth services throughout Florida and Ontario, Canada. Led by Julia Loewi, MSW RSW LCSW-QS CFSW, Reclaim works with high achievers, professionals, and their partners on the problems success doesn't solve: broken trust, emotional disconnection, money conflicts, and the toll a demanding career takes on a marriage. Whether you prefer meeting face-to-face or online, the work is private, direct, and built around the realities of a full life.
You are not alone in this
You can be highly capable and still be deeply stuck in one important part of your life.
If that sentence landed, you are in the right place. It may be a marriage, a family, a career, or a decision you keep circling. Often it is more than one. You do not need to know which before you begin.
You may be hoping for
- More ease and connection in an important relationship
- Better conversations when something difficult needs to be said
- Greater confidence in decisions affecting your family
- Clarity about what you need and what you can change
- Space to understand your own experience
But find yourself
- Repeating the same conversations without resolution
- Feeling disconnected from someone you love
- Carrying more than feels sustainable
- Avoiding a decision with real consequences
- Functioning well externally while feeling privately stuck
Where I focus
Relationships may be the one part of life you cannot solve by trying harder.
Most people I see are not failing. They are capable, responsible, and used to solving difficult problems. Careers are going well. The house runs. From the outside, almost everything looks well-managed.
Privately, the relationship has gone tense, transactional, or quiet. Conversations about money, sex, parenting, time, or the future turn into the same argument, or stop happening at all. What used to be a partnership has become a logistics operation between two people who are perfectly polite to each other.
Often, one person is still trying. Everyone else has disengaged or given up, and somewhere along the way the one still trying started to feel like the problem. Sometimes the real question is not how to fix it, but whether it can be fixed. That is a question worth answering well, and it is where I often begin.
experience you can trust
Two decades of clinical work, most of it in the room with couples.
The framework
The hidden cost of success.
Success quietly takes its toll in four places. Most people fight about the surface.
Ways we can work together
Care for the relationship, the person, and the family
MY APPROACH
Warm doesn't mean passive.
I listen carefully. I also ask difficult questions, name the patterns I am seeing, and challenge the assumptions keeping you stuck, including the comfortable ones. Therapy should give you somewhere to think differently, not simply somewhere to repeat what you already know.

Words from past clients, students, and colleagues
What People Are Saying
“My husband and I are both successful professionals, and we came to Julia after years of having the same arguments (or sometimes not talking at all)…Julia's intellectually sharp and perceptive. We're both fast talkers and tend to jump five steps ahead in a conversation, but she was always able to keep up, connect the dots, and bring us back to what actually mattered. She's also warm and compassionate, but challenged us when needed. Neither of us felt blamed, and neither of us was allowed to stay comfortably stuck in our own narrative.”
— Sarah T.
“I came into my second marriage with a lot more assets than my wife, and I felt responsible for protecting what I'd built. I didn't see how often that left her feeling like she didn't have a real say in big decisions. Julia helped us see that the fights weren't really about money. They were about whether my wife felt like a partner. Now we make financial decisions together, and it's brought us closer instead of pushing us apart.”
— Michael L.
“I’ve known Julia for over 10 years and refer many couples and individuals to her. She's very experienced, but what I notice most is how astute she is. She pulls together history, relationship dynamics, and what's happening right now, and sees the pattern underneath. Clients tell me she said something they'd never considered that changed how they understood their situation. Her judgment on challenging situations is sound.”
— Rachel Goldberg, LMHC
A PRIVATE PAY PRACTICE
A Deliberately Private, Flexible Model of Care
Your therapy should be organized around your life, not an insurer’s definition of medical necessity. Private pay means we focus on what’s actually happening, whether that’s a relationship, a consequential decision, money, professional pressure, or a transition. It allows for flexible session formats, intensives, and a level of discretion that matters when privacy is a real requirement.
Superbills are available for clients pursuing out-of-network reimbursement where clinically appropriate
