Julie Lopez

Dr. Julie Lopez is an award-winning clinician, entrepreneur, and licensed clinical social worker, and the founder of Viva Partnership in Washington, DC. Her clinical specialty is working with implicit memory, the stored experiences people cannot actively recall but that still shape their thoughts and behaviors, using advanced brain-based therapies including EMDR, Brainspotting, and Neurofeedback. She began her career as a systems engineer before turning to the human system, worked early on with survivors of sexual violence at the DC Rape Crisis Center, and served for nearly a decade as adjunct faculty at the Catholic University of America. In Live Empowered!, she offers an accessible guide to rewiring implicit memory to thrive in business, love, and life.
