How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. It is useful for people stuck in avoidance or living with ongoing worry. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing new, more useful responses; it works well for anxiety, depression, and anger-related patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches concrete skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness; these skills are often used for strong anger or impulsive reactions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. She reviews what has helped before and adjusts tools over time rather than insisting on a single method.
Session format details should be confirmed before booking since they are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the time spent traveling. It also lets people practice skills from their usual environment and bring real-life examples into sessions. Ask about the available formats when you schedule so you know how sessions will be delivered.
