About Julie
She uses skills from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help manage intense emotions and change unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness practices and client-centered conversations are woven into sessions to help people notice what matters and make choices that fit their life. Solution-focused work can help when someone wants shorter-term, goal-directed support.
Julie lists a wide range of concerns she addresses, including stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, ADHD, and coping with chronic illness or disability. She also notes interests in attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, caregiver strain, and life changes such as divorce or aging.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She meets people where they are, listens for strengths, and offers concrete tools to try between sessions. Julie encourages patience - healing often takes time but small shifts add up.
She blends practical strategies with moments of reflection, and invites clients to explore values, faith, and daily routines as part of recovery and growth.

Step 3
How Julie’s approaches translate to online work
Julie commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in practical ways. CBT helps people notice thought patterns and try small experiments to change behavior and mood. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that are useful when feelings feel overwhelming.She also integrates client-centered listening and brief solution-focused steps to set concrete goals. Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with each person to decide which tools to use based on their needs, goals, and what feels doable in daily life.
If you are considering online therapy, check the session options before booking to confirm what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, let you use shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so you can spend more time on coping strategies between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt skills-based work like CBT and DBT to remote sessions, and Julie will help plan practical tasks you can try between meetings.
