Aletheia provides transformational support to professionals, at the intersection of self, work, and changing world.
Truth; unconcealedness; the state of not being hidden.
True mentorship and honest communication suffer under the demands of the modern workplace.
In the conversation on professionals’ well-being, industry is focused on symptoms, misunderstood as causes. Solutions are selected for their trendiness or expediency, not efficacy. We see these approaches exhaust themselves time after time – at great expense – as problems prove perennial.
Aletheia does things differently. We serve with the zeal and intensity of effort our clients rightly expect of a peer. We help bring about individual transformations which are manifest and durable.
We serve members of the professions who know that a real remedy, in work and in life, must be an inside job.
Coaching & consultation (in person, by video or phone)
Bespoke mentorships for professionals in career transition
Curated personal retreats for pause & renewal
Roundtable events for small groups
Sponsored collaborations
PHILOSOPHY
We believe a personal evolution requires a refined language, honest self-inquiry, dedication and verve.
We believe in the simple and potent. We reject superficial advice and eschew one-size-fits-all.
The Aletheia approach is practical, discreet, and tailored to your needs. Whether you are a virtual member or a private client, we deliver insights efficiently to support your near-term problem solving and, we hope, your lifelong growth.

Senior Associate, New York, Litigation Boutique
The impact Julie has had on my career has been immeasurable. She gently helped me learn to recognize and appreciate my strengths, while guiding me through identifying and resolving my weaknesses. Julie’s rare ability to help develop “soft” skills in others is remarkable in and of itself – but it is made all the more so because she has unlocked the mystery of how to deliver precise, actionable insights to attorneys who tend to be allergic to anything but unqualified praise.

Senior Associate, Litigation, Miami
As a textbook Type-A lawyer, the 2020 slowdown threw all my plans out of whack. Julie helped me focus on the long-term during a period of life I was consumed by the short-term. Doesn’t always tell you what you want to hear – but always what you need to hear. 10/10 would recommend.

Midlevel Associate, Finance, New York
I have been working with Julie for almost a year. I was referred by a friend who attended her workshop. I needed help managing up and down, and identifying a more specialized path within my practice area. Instead of giving me canned tips & programs, she started with me: she worked with me to hone in on my disposition, my values and plans for the future. Her advice is precise yet profound. I always take away the words I need for my immediate situation, and think about broader implications for my career and myself.

Visiting Scholar, Columbia Law School; Litigation Boutique alum
I can think of no better resource than Julie for a new attorney finding his footing in the profession. Our sessions are hard work but fun. Together we covered topics ranging from designing time management strategies that fit impossible schedules, to scripting ways to repair broken teams, to pulling back the curtain on what motivates lawyers to behave the way we do in the first place. Julie's ability to carefully listen, to notice the verbs we choose, and to catch the nuance of body language and cadence give her an uncanny ability to press us to be more competent and well-resourced than I would have ever thought possible. Her intelligence and ability to spark inquiry are unique, fun to be around, easy to pick up. Best of all, no matter where you are in your life or career by comparison, you sense her absolute respect for you as a person and professional.
