About Julie
Julie Knight is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor with 30 years of clinical work. She helps people who are stressed, anxious, grieving, or facing major life changes. Parents and adults concerned about self-esteem, intimacy, or career transitions will find practical guidance and steady support.
Her style is warm and person-centered. She focuses on strengths and clear goals. Sessions aim to build skills, reduce distress, and improve everyday functioning.
How Julie works
Julie draws on a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and dial back symptoms. She applies attachment ideas to strengthen close connections and address patterns that repeat in relationships.
She also uses acceptance and commitment principles to help people clarify values and take meaningful action, plus dialectical skills when emotions feel overwhelming. These methods are blended into straightforward, practical work rather than theory-heavy lectures. Julie has long experience across inpatient psychiatric settings and crisis response, as well as providing individual therapy.
She has a particular focus on LGBT concerns, neurodiversity and highly sensitive people, and supports those navigating gender questions, trauma, caregiving stress, and complex mood or trauma histories. Clients who prefer learning more about themselves may work on personality and attachment patterns, including voluntary personality inventories and free online tools recommended by Julie.
She offers guidance that aims to last beyond a single problem and help people make clearer life choices.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Julie blends cognitive behavioral techniques and attachment-based work in online meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test them with practical experiments to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships, helping people understand how early bonds affect current closeness and communication. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Julie will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest methods that fit your situation. You and she will make adjustments as progress is assessed so the plan stays useful and relevant. Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support quick updates, momentary coaching, or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments while keeping therapeutic continuity.Start online instead of waiting
