Background and approach
She focuses on practical steps so progress feels achievable and clear. Her approach borrows from several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change thought patterns that feed anxiety or low mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies skills for managing intense emotions and improving stability. Client-centered work emphasizes the person's own strengths and choices. Julie also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies to help people find momentum and small wins.
These approaches are useful when someone is ready to try concrete changes or needs help deciding what matters next. With nine years of experience, she brings steady support without jargon. Sessions are practical and collaborative, aimed at reducing overwhelm and building day-to-day coping.
Julie encourages people to take the next step and will help them shape a plan that fits their life.
