Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Julie draws on several established approaches to support healing and growth. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating a collaborative relationship in which the client’s values and pace guide the work - this approach is helpful for building self-esteem, navigating life changes, and processing grief. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help identify unhelpful patterns and develop practical strategies for anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive tendencies. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-informed method used to process distressing memories and reduce the intensity of traumatic reactions, often applied when trauma or abuse is part of a person’s history.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Julie collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress and priorities evolve. Licensed professionals and therapists work together with clients to tailor care rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit varying schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistency, access support from different locations, and choose the format that best fits an individual’s life and pace.
