People who want a direct, team-oriented counselor often find her style straightforward and focused on what to try next. Julie uses her training and early-career experience to help people manage anger, stress, and the other concerns they bring to sessions.

Approaches that guide online work and what they do

Julie uses evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness in her practice. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and anger. Mindfulness teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help people notice sensations and reduce reactivity in stressful moments.

She may also use reality-oriented strategies that focus on present choices and goals, or motivational interviewing to help clarify personal reasons for change. Choosing the right mix is a joint process; the therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust the plan together so the approach fits the person’s needs and preferences.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session formats before booking since current session options were not specified. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life by removing commuting time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering sessions that match someone’s schedule. Licensed professionals use these approaches to help people practice skills between sessions and apply changes in daily life.
