About Julie
Julie Presler is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She speaks plain, direct language and listens without judgement. Julie aims to make the first steps in therapy feel manageable for people who are unsure where to turn.
She draws on eight years of clinical experience to help clients identify problems and build practical coping skills.
How Julie works
Julie focuses on goal-oriented work that includes planning, healing from past events, and creating strategies to manage daily challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of the approaches she uses to address unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Julie writes that she has also faced mental health challenges in her own life, and she uses that perspective to stay grounded and human in sessions.
She sometimes uses gentle humor to reduce tension and make hard topics easier to discuss. The result is a friendly, straightforward style that aims to keep progress steady and realistic. Her work covers a wide range of concerns such as codependency, communication problems, domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, feelings of emptiness, family conflict, guilt, impulsivity, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
She also addresses mood disorders including panic, personality disorders, postpartum depression, and post-traumatic stress. Julie offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to meet people where they are. Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and people begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability.

How Julie’s approaches work online
Julie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT includes practical exercises and homework that translate well to online formats and can help with anxiety, depression, panic, and mood problems.The choice of approach is collaborative. Julie will work with each person to find what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what is working and adjust techniques over time so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues are helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter, in-the-moment check-ins or when writing helps to clarify thoughts. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between sessions.
