About Julie

Background and approach
Her approach is grounded in listening first, then choosing simple strategies together. In sessions Julie uses a person-centered style that helps people feel heard. She draws on cognitive behavioral tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts.
She also incorporates somatic ideas to notice how the body holds stress and emotion. Julie aims to make change gradual and realistic. Conversations include identifying patterns, trying small experiments, and practicing new habits.
She offers tangible coping skills for anger, communication problems, codependency, and career pressures. The therapist creates a steady space to name feelings and test solutions. Sessions look at symptoms, life demands, and daily routines that get in the way.
Julie encourages self-compassion and practical plans so people can manage current problems and move toward clearer goals.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Julie uses somatic ideas to help people notice how stress shows up in the body and to learn gentle ways to shift those sensations. This can help with anxiety, grief, and chronic stress by pairing body awareness with practical coping steps.She also draws on attachment-based work to look at how early connections shape current relationships and emotional patterns. That approach is useful for people wrestling with trust, abandonment wounds, or repeating relationship cycles. Julie’s client-centered stance keeps the person's goals front and center and creates room to choose tools that fit each life.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with each person to decide what feels most helpful based on needs and goals. She adjusts methods over time so sessions stay practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, follow up between sessions, and try skills in real life while still having professional support.
