About Julie
Julie Christman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 10 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and anger. Julie works with clients who are dealing with relationship and career pressures, grief, and major life changes.
She uses practical conversation and evidence-based tools. Sessions often include strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns and change unhelpful thoughts. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used to clarify values and take workable steps toward them.
Julie also draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions grounded in what the client feels is most important. For trauma-related concerns she incorporates EMDR elements when appropriate to address distress tied to memories. Her style is direct and focused on skills that can be used between sessions.
People seeking help for anger will find approaches aimed at reducing reactive responses and building clearer communication. Julie explains options, practices techniques in session, and reviews how those techniques fit daily life. She aims to make tools practical and straightforward.
Her work includes attention to attachment, codependency, caregiver stress, body image, and grief. Julie helps clients talk through family of origin issues, commitment concerns, and forgiveness work. The emphasis is on concrete steps rather than abstract theory.
How her approaches translate to online work
Julie commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in session. ACT focuses on spotting what matters to you and taking small steps that reflect those values, which helps when anger or avoidance get in the way. CBT identifies thought patterns that lead to reactive behavior and teaches clearer ways to respond in tense moments.EMDR is also part of her toolkit for trauma-related distress; it involves structured processing of upsetting memories to reduce their intensity while building present-day coping. Each approach targets different problems, so she discusses which methods match the client's goals and the specific issues they bring to sessions.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will review options with the client, try strategies in-session, and adjust based on what feels effective. That way the plan reflects the client's needs, goals, and preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all method.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day, avoid travel time, and use tools like worksheets or guided practice between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques such as CBT exercises, ACT values work, and EMDR-informed processing to remote sessions when appropriate.
