About Julianna
Julianna Bardgett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who centers therapy around the client's experience. She uses straightforward, practical approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. Her manner is down-to-earth and focused on concrete steps clients can try between sessions.
She has seven years of experience in behavioral health, including extensive work in substance abuse treatment for women with children. Julianna completed a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Montana and a Master of Social Work from the University of Louisiana.
Background and approach
She practices in Idaho as an LCSW and brings a history of community mental health work to her clinical style. Her work often addresses trauma, depression, relationship and family concerns, addictions, and LGBT-related issues. She also supports people facing chronic pain, caregiver stress, body image concerns, codependency, and attachment or abandonment worries.
Julianna uses a mix of approaches to match the concern at hand rather than relying on a single method. In sessions she draws on client-centered principles, meaning the person in therapy guides the pace and focus. She also uses skills-based methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies and elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and coping tools.
For trauma, she includes EMDR elements when appropriate. Julianna offers sessions in English and works with people by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. She aims to help clients build practical skills, improve relationships, and find relief from persistent worry and stress.
How Julianna Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people recognize relationship habits and practice new ways of connecting and trusting others, useful for attachment issues and abandonment concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It teaches concrete skills to reduce worry, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and change behaviors that feed anxiety or depressive cycles.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used for processing traumatic memories. In practice she integrates EMDR methods when trauma is a central concern and when the person and therapist agree it may help.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, try strategies, and adjust the plan together so it fits your needs. This teamwork helps decide whether skills work, processing, or relationship-focused work should lead sessions.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or mobility limits. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can be a simpler check-in, and live chat or text messaging can support brief updates or between-session coaching. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, school break, or caregiving routine while using the methods described above.
