Judea Castillo Winter

Judea Castillo Winter practices from a humanistic, strength-based perspective, helping people identify and build on their existing resources to move toward healthier, more satisfying lives.

She began her education as a psychology major and later completed a Master of Social Work to broaden her clinical training and practice options. Over the past 10 years she has supported a wide range of clients, including older adults and their families, people facing dual diagnosis and substance use concerns, LGBTQ individuals, people involved in forensic or domestic violence contexts, veterans, and others coping with trauma, poverty, depression, and anxiety.

Judea works with many presenting concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, career difficulties, relationship and family conflicts, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, self-esteem challenges, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She also integrates coaching techniques when helpful to support practical goal-setting and motivation.

Her virtual office is offered as a nonjudgmental space where clients can move at their own pace. Judea approaches therapy as a collaborative process - she sees clients as the experts on their own lives and aims to guide them in uncovering their own answers and envisioning a brighter future.

She holds clinical social work licensure in Kentucky and Montana and is also licensed to practice social work in Ohio. Judea is based in Ohio and welcomes those ready to begin therapeutic work.
