Background and approach
She also draws on emotionally-focused and Gottman-informed methods to address relationship and intimacy concerns. With 16 years of experience, Julie has supported people across many stages of life. That experience includes helping those navigating blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, codependency, and family-of-origin issues.
She also helps with body image, eating-related concerns, and challenges tied to abandonment or commitment worries. Julie offers a mix of coaching and therapy to help people build skills and meet personal goals. She works with individual clients as well as people seeking help for relationships and family problems.
Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in and outside the United States. Practical matters are part of how she works. Therapy can happen by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Costs vary by location and are billed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How attachment and emotionally-focused work translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it helps people understand triggers and build more supported ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's own perspective and choices, offering a respectful space to talk and make decisions; it supports self-esteem and clearer personal goals. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and shift the emotional patterns that keep them stuck in painful interactions, often used for intimacy and relationship repair.Choosing the right method is a joint process. Julie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which approaches to try and adjust over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can fit into busy schedules or need less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and ongoing coaching easier between sessions. These options let people combine formats to match energy, time, and the type of work they want to do.
