About Julie
Julie Mannarino is a licensed clinical social worker with 12 years of experience. She focuses on anxiety and stress and helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck in their career, or facing low mood. She aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what matters to them.
Julie uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She listens first, then works with clients to set small, doable goals.
Background and approach
Conversations often include noticing thoughts, trying new behaviors, and practicing skills between sessions. Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness. Those methods help people tolerate strong feelings, break unhelpful thinking patterns, and take small steps toward valued goals.
She also weaves in client-centered care to tailor sessions to each person’s pace. Julie has helped people manage grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and mood disruptions. She also addresses concerns such as obsessive-compulsive thoughts, ADHD-related struggles, postpartum low mood, and social anxiety.
Her work includes practical coaching for life direction and career decisions. Julie is licensed in Pennsylvania as an LCSW. Sessions are offered in English and available in multiple online formats.
She invites anyone who feels ready to take a first step to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session.
How Julie’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people live in line with their values while noticing difficult thoughts and feelings. Online sessions can include exercises to name values and plan small actions that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches steps to change patterns. In virtual meetings clients learn practical skills and get coaching on homework they can try between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will talk with each person about goals and what feels useful, then adapt techniques from ACT, CBT, and client-centered care to match preferences. That collaboration helps shape a plan that fits a person’s pace and needs rather than forcing a single method.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read nonverbal cues and practice skills in real time. Phone can be lower bandwidth and easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflections, or when typing feels more comfortable. These formats make it easier to connect from different locations and schedules while keeping therapy practical and focused.
