About Julian
Julian Laverde is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with six years of experience. He helps people who are feeling stuck by listening closely and working together to find practical ways forward. Julian speaks plainly and focuses on day-to-day steps clients can use to cope better.
He commonly helps people navigate stress and anxiety and supports those recovering from trauma or abuse. He also addresses low mood, self-esteem struggles, and the hard changes life brings.
Background and approach
Sessions are centered on what matters most to each person and move at a comfortable pace. Julian creates an open atmosphere where clients can say what they really think and feel without judgment. He encourages small experiments between sessions so people can test new ways of handling worries and difficult situations.
Progress is treated as a series of manageable steps rather than sudden fixes. Many people come to him for issues like body image, loneliness, work stress, or relationship communication problems. He also works with men facing identity or purpose questions and young adults wrestling with transitions.
Conversations cover both immediate coping skills and longer-term goals. Therapy with Julian focuses on practical strategies and honest conversation. He supports clients in building confidence, reducing overwhelm, and finding more satisfying daily routines.
The aim is to leave sessions with clearer choices and tools to use between meetings.
Approachable evidence-based techniques for online care
Julian uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and achievable change. One common approach emphasizes practical coping skills for anxiety and stress - teaching breathing and grounding exercises, breaking worries into manageable steps, and building daily routines that reduce overwhelm. This approach helps when anxiety or stress get in the way of everyday life.He also draws on trauma-informed methods that pay attention to safety and pacing. These methods help people reclaim a sense of control after experiences of abuse or trauma by working slowly, naming reactions, and practicing tolerable steps toward change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julian collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, needs, and preferences. He will check in regularly and adapt strategies as progress unfolds so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy or changing schedules. Video calls let you see facial cues and work through material in depth. Phone sessions or live chat can be a better fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines while still accessing licensed professionals.
