About Julie
Julie Gregory-Bateman is a counsellor who offers calm, practical support for people feeling stressed, anxious or low. She speaks plainly and listens closely, helping clients talk things through at their own pace and make manageable changes. Julie works with issues such as grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and coping with life changes.
She uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. Sessions can focus on present difficulties or look back to earlier experiences to understand how emotions like anger or sadness began.
Background and approach
That perspective often makes current problems easier to manage and gives clear avenues for change. Julie trained in cognitive approaches and integrative psychotherapy and holds a Master of Science degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. She also has an Advanced Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and other study related to dementia care.
Julie is a BACP member and has worked in supportive roles for a variety of people over four years in counselling practice. Before moving into counselling she had a career in business management, including finance and logistics, so she is used to practical problem solving and clear communication.
She brings that experience into sessions when clients want help organising decisions or facing practical life stresses. Outside work she supports community projects and enjoys spending time outdoors with her family and pet. If someone wants to explore their feelings and find steady ways to cope, Julie offers a straightforward, welcoming space to begin that work.
How these approaches work online
Attachment-based work pays attention to current relationship patterns and how early connections affect feelings today. It helps people understand why they react a certain way and supports steadier, more trusting ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers simple, practical tools to test unhelpful thinking and build more effective coping strategies for anxiety and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie aims to collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That means trying things, noticing what helps, and adjusting the plan together so the therapy feels relevant and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people see facial cues and use shared worksheets. Phone sessions can fit into a short break and need less bandwidth. Live chat or messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, ongoing reflection, or when typing feels easier than talking. These formats help people access counselling around work, caring responsibilities or mobility limits.
