Online support options
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Julie commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and clearer about what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which helps with depression, anxiety, and coping skills.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Julie will work with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences. Early sessions are used to clarify what matters most and try different tools to see what fits best.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging support quick reflections, between-session check-ins, and work that suits a flexible schedule. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
