About Julie
Julie Schehr is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of experience in New Jersey. She greets clients with a warm, engaging approach and aims to make conversations feel natural and understandable. Julie focuses on helping people who are navigating life changes and medical challenges.
She uses practical tools so people can manage stress and move forward. Julie often works with people dealing with breakups, job transitions, college graduation, and other major life shifts.
How Julie works
She also has a long background on the medical side and supports those facing a new diagnosis or caring for someone who is ill. These experiences shape how she listens and what she suggests in session. Her primary approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, commonly called CBT.
She tends to offer short-term work focused on learning strategies and tools to reduce symptoms and handle day-to-day problems. Sessions emphasize clear goals and measurable steps toward them. Julie believes every person’s story is unique, so she starts by hearing how events have affected you.
She collaborates with each person to set realistic goals and build the skills needed to reach them. The aim is to help people feel empowered and able to continue without ongoing therapy. People who prefer straightforward guidance and practical skills tend to find her style helpful.
She works in English and practices in New Jersey as an LCSW. Her background in medical settings can be especially useful for those balancing health and life demands.

Online support options
CBT and practical online therapy options
Julie primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT teaches specific skills and exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build coping strategies for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress.Her work is collaborative - she and the person seeking help decide together which approach will fit best. That means trying out techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan based on goals and preferences. Finding the right method is part of the process and happens step by step.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people talk face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to receive support in shorter, flexible moments during the day. These formats increase flexibility and help people fit therapy into busy lives while using CBT tools and skill practice between meetings.
