What to Expect
1.
Individual
Individual counseling is a process through which you work one-on-one with a trained mental health clinician in a safe, caring, and confidential environment.
2.
Trauma
Trauma is the response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event that overwhelms an individual's ability to cope, causes feelings of helplessness, diminishes their sense of self and their ability to feel a full range of emotions and experiences.
3.
Youth
15-18
Young people may face a variety of challenges, including family stress, academic issues, social anxiety, bullying, and identity crises.
4.
Relationship Recovery
Relationship Recovery is an intentional process of healing emotional wounds, rebuilding trust, and fostering healthier, more secure connections after seasons of conflict, betrayal, or addiction. It may involve both partners working together—or an individual doing their own healing work—to strengthen communication, rebuild boundaries, and develop personal growth that shifts the relationship from dysfunctional patterns into supportive, respectful dynamics.

My Approach
Hello, I’m Julie Klecker, the CEO and President of Artizo Ministries. I hold licenses as a professional counselor in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and North Carolina, and I am also a Chaplain certified by the International Fellowship of Chaplains and member of the American Association of Christian Counselors. I strictly follow the ethical guidelines and standards associated with my licenses, including the American Psychological Association's directives for practitioners. My goal is to provide a safe environment for those seeking counseling to feel comfortable during sessions. I am committed to giving you my full attention, listening actively, focusing on your unique experiences without assumptions or judgments. Together, we will identify your therapy goals and select the most suitable approach to achieve them.
About Me
Before I became a counselor, I attended Penn State University and worked in the steel mills of Western PA on summer breaks. When my parents divorced, I dropped out of college and joined the military. I served for four years in the US Navy. After that, I programmed computers for John Hopkins Applied Physics Lab. My work history also includes providing administrative assistance in differing marketplaces and educational institutions. While completing ministry school in Charlotte, NC, I was a singles and evangelism pastor for a short time.

Artizo Ministries' Vision...
Artizo Ministries is dedicated to supporting individuals, couples, and families facing the effects of trauma—whether simple or complex—as well as relationship struggles, stress, anxiety, compassion fatigue, and depression. We offer evidence-based therapy techniques. When requested, spirituality may be incorporated using Christian healing practices and/or prayer ministry.
Our desire is for every person who seeks counseling to feel heard, seen, and supported in their wellness journey. Clients seeking inner peace will be guided to deepen their relationship with God, themselves, and others—building self-esteem and healthier social connections. Through learning about boundaries, assertiveness, and renewing mindsets and changing limiting childhood beliefs into empowering truths, meaningful and lasting change is possible. At Artizo Ministries, we are committed to creating a compassionate and healing therapeutic alliance.
