About Julie
Julie Stevens helps people facing stress and anxiety, grief and loss, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and issues with motivation. She also supports people with relationship and family concerns, addictions, sleep and eating problems, and challenges linked to life changes. Julie is named early so readers know who they are considering.
Julie uses a client-centred approach that focuses on the person's own goals and pace. Sessions are conversational; she listens and reflects back what she hears.
Background and approach
The aim is to make it easier to understand feelings and to try practical steps that feel manageable. Her background includes work across mental health and wellbeing, and she brings four years of professional counselling experience alongside a longer career in mental health nursing. That mix shapes a straightforward style that balances empathy with practical problem-solving.
In a typical session Julie will invite people to talk about what is hardest right now. She encourages small, realistic changes and helps build skills for coping with strong emotions. There is space to talk about triggers, patterns, and what people want to change next.
Julie welcomes people who are dealing with complex or ongoing difficulties such as trauma, bipolar mood challenges, caregiver stress, chronic illness, or issues around attachment and abandonment. She aims to work at a steady pace, matching support to each person’s needs and readiness to change.
Client-centred care delivered online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement, mirrors what is said, and helps people clarify their goals. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief, and adjusting to big life changes.Julie uses conversational sessions to understand what is most important to each person. Together they decide which ideas and exercises to try next, and adjust the plan as things change. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process and the counsellor will support people in finding what feels most helpful for their needs and preferences.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls work well when visual contact helps the conversation. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for frequent check-ins, brief reflections, or for people who prefer writing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving, and travel.
