About Julian

Julian Hart is a counsellor with three decades of experience supporting people through anxiety, stress, depression and low self-esteem. He works in a straightforward, practical way to help people feel more in control. Julian offers short- and longer-term help depending on what someone needs.

He draws on a range of approaches so sessions are shaped around each person's situation. That can mean looking at unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, exploring personal values, or using a warm, client-centred space to talk things through.

Background and approach

Julian aims to give clear tools that can be used after therapy ends. People come for help with relationship strains, family concerns, grief and trauma, sleep problems, anger and career stress. He also supports those facing complex challenges such as chronic illness, panic attacks, obsessive thoughts, phobias and post-traumatic stress.

He can work on feelings like shame, emptiness, abandonment and difficulties with self-worth. Julian trained originally in integrative therapeutic counselling and has substantial training in cognitive behavioural approaches. He uses this background to match methods to each problem rather than following one fixed model.

Sessions are practical and focused on real-life changes. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, works from the United Kingdom, and carries thirty years of clinical experience. Conversations are held in English and structured around what the client hopes to achieve.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thinking and reconnect with what really matters to them. Online ACT sessions often focus on practical exercises and values-based goals that you can use between meetings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches techniques to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms; it translates well to structured online sessions with worksheets and behavioural experiments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julian will discuss the different methods and help decide which fits best with a person's goals, needs and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can be revisited as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone calls need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break, while chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
