About Julia
Julia Wilkinson, BACP counsellor, has seven years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, addictions and depression. She also works with compassion fatigue and a wide range of related concerns such as anger, grief and relationship difficulties.
Julia uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people notice patterns and try new ways of responding. She treats clients as the expert in their own life and supports them to build on existing strengths. Sessions are aimed at breaking down problems into manageable steps rather than overwhelming theory.
Her approach draws on several methods. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviours that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people accept difficult feelings while taking steps that matter to them. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers clear skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance.
Julia also uses attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape current reactions. Client-centred work keeps the conversation focused on the person’s priorities and perspective. Together these approaches give practical tools for handling anger, improving sleep, managing addiction urges and reducing anxiety.
If someone wants to start, Julia asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions run through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Julia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in sessions. CBT focuses on spotting the thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and practising small changes to test what helps. ACT encourages noticing difficult feelings and choosing actions that align with personal values rather than reacting on impulse.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships influence current responses. These approaches are described and tried together, so the client and therapist can decide which tools fit best. The therapist works collaboratively to choose practises and skills that match the client’s goals and the problems they want to address.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into workdays, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Online work can make it straightforward to practise skills between sessions and to bring real-life situations into discussion without promising any specific format.
