About Julie

Julie Morris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience in therapy. She works with adults on common concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting stress, sleep troubles, and anger. Sessions are practical and focused on real-life problems people bring to therapy.

Over two decades she has supported people facing trauma and emotional abuse as well as issues like addictions, ADHD, and body image struggles. She also addresses career stress, coping with life changes, and caregiving strain. Julie uses language that is direct and respectful when talking through problems.

Her approach combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. That means conversations focus on what matters to the client, identify thinking patterns that create distress, and find small steps that move things forward. Solution-Focused ideas are used to set specific short-term goals.

In sessions she listens for patterns in relationships, reactions to stress, and situations that trigger anger or avoidance. Then she helps people try concrete changes, practice new reactions, and track progress between meetings. The work tends to be interactive and goal-oriented.

People who want clear tools for managing strong feelings, more effective communication, or help breaking cycles of avoidance often choose this style. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session where practical next steps are agreed on.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding what matters to the client. Online sessions use that same conversational stance to clarify priorities and discover what the person wants to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical strategies to change them; online work can include short exercises, worksheets, and practice between sessions. Motivational Interviewing helps people move through ambivalence by identifying personal reasons for change and small steps to try; it works well for managing addictions, motivation, and stubborn habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist and client will decide together which methods fit the client’s goals and preferences. That collaborative decision happens early and can be adjusted as progress is tracked.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people use tools such as worksheets or shared screen notes during a session to practice new responses to anger and stress.
