About Julie

Dr. Julie Moreno is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who helps people facing hard moments. She focuses on everyday struggles like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship stress, and coping with major life changes. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at making therapy feel doable for worried parents and busy adults.

She uses practical tools to help people understand their patterns and build stronger coping skills. Sessions often look at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offer small experiments clients can try between meetings. Julie encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes and tailors work to each person's needs.

Her background includes 14 years of clinical experience working with concerns such as trauma and attachment difficulties, addiction, chronic illness and disability, and issues related to aging. She also supports people dealing with career strain, caregiver stress, body image worries, and sexual intimacy concerns. Intellectual disability is listed among her focus areas and she adapts her approach to match each person’s abilities and goals.

Therapeutic methods drawn from Julie's practice include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based approaches, and client-centered listening. She blends these methods to fit the individual rather than prescribing one fixed model.

To start, she asks people to describe what matters most to them and then builds a plan together. The work is collaborative and paced to the client, with attention to practical changes that can make daily life easier.

Step 3

How these approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors through small experiments between sessions; it often helps with worry, sleeping problems, and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop more secure ways of relating to others, which can aid relationship and intimacy concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. Treatment plans are collaborative and can shift as needs change.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as this profile does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice new skills in day-to-day settings and bring real-life situations into discussion during sessions.
