About Julie
Julie Edmenson is a counsellor who aims to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief and life changes. She uses straightforward conversation to support parents worried about parenting, and to help people build self-esteem and confidence. Julie is registered with the BACP, which appears after her name as BACP, and she brings 11 years of experience to her practice.
She focuses on understanding how early relationships shape present reactions. Sessions are person-centred and tailored to each individual's needs.
How Julie works
Julie listens carefully, asks practical questions, and helps clients identify small steps they can take between meetings. Her work often addresses loss, the impact of caregiving and issues linked to attachment and separation. She also supports people dealing with control problems, communication difficulties, codependency and the distress that comes with major life transitions.
Conversations can be paced according to how someone is coping in the moment. Julie uses narrative and existential ideas to help people make sense of difficult experiences. These approaches encourage reflection on personal stories and on values that matter in life.
Mindfulness techniques are offered to help manage anxiety and to improve moment-to-moment coping. Sessions tend to be practical and straightforward rather than technical. The counsellor helps people set achievable goals and reviews progress together.
Those seeking online support can expect appointments by video, phone, live chat or text messaging depending on their preference and circumstances.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how earlier relationships shape current ways of relating and reacting. It helps when worries stem from feeling unsafe, abandoned or overly guarded in relationships. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of sessions by offering non-judgemental listening and respect; this approach helps people gain clarity and confidence to make choices that fit their life.Julie will work collaboratively to find the best approach. Together the client and counsellor will discuss goals, try different ways of working and adjust the plan as progress is reviewed. Finding the right fit is part of the therapy process rather than a one-time decision.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people maintain visual contact and a fuller conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send messages between sessions or to have a written check-in when typing feels more comfortable. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments and make it easier to sustain regular sessions with registered or accredited professionals.
