About Julia
Julia Harvey is a counsellor and BACP member with 20 years of professional experience. She helps people who are anxious, stressed, low in energy, or facing grief and major life changes. Julia aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful of the courage it takes.
She creates an open space where clients can speak without judgement. Conversations focus on what matters most now, whether that is sleep troubles, appetite and eating concerns, anger, or motivation at work.
Background and approach
Sessions can also look at relationship strain, intimacy-related questions, and the emotional impact of long-term health issues. Julia uses a holistic lens that blends counselling and coaching. She encourages people to reconnect with their own instincts and to take practical steps towards change.
Mindfulness practices and client-centred listening are part of how she helps people notice patterns and find relief. Her background includes long-term work supporting people with compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, and chronic illness. She also offers help around identity themes such as attachment, body image, and family of origin concerns.
Practical problem-solving around career and life transitions is another focus. Julia has also written about her own recovery from Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and shares a six-step roadmap for rebuilding energy and balance. That personal experience informs how she responds to persistent health problems and fatigue.
She aims to walk alongside clients while they investigate and rebuild their wellbeing.
Client-centred and mindfulness approaches for online care
Julia uses a client-centred approach that focuses on the person in front of her. That means listening carefully, reflecting what matters to the client, and shaping sessions around the client’s priorities and pace. This approach is useful for emotional concerns such as anxiety, self-esteem, grief, and relationship questions.She also draws on mindfulness therapy, which teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. Mindfulness can help with stress, sleep problems, anger, and coping with persistent health issues by offering short, practical exercises suitable for daily life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs and will try different techniques to find what fits best. That collaboration helps shape each session and the longer-term plan.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is helpful for in-depth conversations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat suits quick check-ins or when someone prefers shorter, written exchanges. These options make it possible to fit therapy around work, family life, or health-related energy levels.
