She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress, or life changes.

Background and approach
That might mean building coping skills for stress, working through trauma or loss, or finding clearer ways to manage mood and motivation. Her work draws on attachment-based ideas to understand patterns in close relationships. She also uses client-centered methods that keep the person's goals at the center of therapy.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used when helpful to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Julie pays attention to issues like self-esteem, intimacy concerns, and the strain that caregiving or health problems can bring. She supports people dealing with grief, career transitions, ADHD, or compassion fatigue and will help prioritize what to tackle first.
Sessions are arranged to fit a person’s schedule when possible, and she can open additional times if needed. Julie welcomes international clients and conducts work in English. She aims to make therapy a practical, manageable part of everyday life.

Online support
Approaches that guide online work and what to expect
Julie often uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationship patterns affect current feelings and reactions; this helps people see why certain fears or trust issues repeat and where new ways of relating can begin. She also applies client-centered therapy, which puts the person's goals and experience at the center of each conversation and shapes sessions around what the client says they need.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Julie will talk with the client about goals, history, and what feels most helpful, then try methods that match those needs. If a tool or style isn’t working, she adjusts the plan so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when scheduling a longer session is difficult. These options let people fit therapy into busy lives, keep regular momentum between appointments, and choose the interaction style that feels most manageable.
