About Julie
Julie Duncan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with relationship strain, trauma, stress, anxiety, mood concerns, substance issues, and questions around identity and intimacy. Julie aims to make the first step feel manageable and affirms the courage it takes to reach out for help.
She builds sessions around open, nonjudgmental conversation. Julie listens for what matters most and helps people name patterns and choices that get in the way of their goals.
How Julie works
Practical strategies and short-term problem solving are combined with time to process feelings and difficult memories. With 15 years of experience, Julie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. She helps people address grief, self-esteem, sleep or eating struggles, caregiver stress, and the ripple effects of chronic illness.
She also supports those navigating questions about sexual orientation and intimacy-related concerns. Julie pays attention to life transitions such as career change, aging, blended family adjustments, and coping after a loss or disaster. She also works with challenges like ADHD, codependency, and commitment worries in everyday life.
Sessions aim to help people build clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and stronger coping skills. Practical matters are part of the plan too. Julie offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
All sessions are conducted in English and she practices in Louisiana.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Julie uses common evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide online sessions. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new ways of reacting to stress and low mood; this helps with anxiety, depression, and problem-solving in daily life. Another approach centers on processing traumatic memories and current triggers in a paced way so people can reduce distress and improve daily functioning.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Julie will work with each client to identify goals, review what feels most useful, and adjust methods over time. She discusses options and tailors the plan so techniques fit the person's needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls make it possible to have face-to-face discussion when a longer session or visual cues help. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for brief check-ins, homework review, or more frequent contact between appointments. These options aim to make care easier to fit into work, caregiving, or busy days.
