About Julie
Julie Tademy-Thorpe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania. She brings seven years of clinical experience and focuses on practical ways to help people manage stress, depression, anxiety, and relationship or parenting challenges. Julie aims to create a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate space for conversations about difficult topics.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and works collaboratively with each person to shape sessions around their needs. That means setting goals together and adjusting the approach as progress and life change.
How Julie works
Julie helps people handle trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, grief, and intimacy-related issues through clear, goal-focused work. She also addresses mood disorders such as bipolar and disruptive mood dysregulation, as well as attention concerns like ADHD. Additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment issues, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, codependency, and multicultural concerns.
Julie supports people navigating postpartum depression, panic attacks, and feelings of isolation or low self-esteem. Her style emphasizes practical steps and steady support rather than abstract theory. Sessions may include talking through past events, building coping strategies, and practicing new ways to handle conflict and strong emotions.
Julie recognizes that starting therapy takes courage and aims to empower people to move toward a more satisfying life. Sessions are offered in English and are provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. She holds LCSW credentials in Tennessee and Pennsylvania and applies her clinical experience to meet varied concerns.

Evidence-based approaches for online care
Julie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear goals and practical skills. One common approach she uses involves helping people identify unhelpful patterns in thinking and behavior and then practicing small, manageable changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. This method is useful for depression, panic attacks, and stress-related problems.Another approach centers on processing traumatic experiences and building safety and coping strategies. That work helps people reduce the impact of past abuse or traumatic events and regain a sense of control and stability. For relationship and parenting concerns she emphasizes skills for communication, boundary-setting, and managing intense emotions so interactions feel less reactive and more productive.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Julie will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she will adapt the plan as progress is made. That collaborative process helps clients stay engaged and see what is working.
Online therapy offers practical benefits: video calls let people meet face-to-face without travel, phone sessions work well when video is difficult, and live chat or text-based messaging provide brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make therapy more flexible for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or lower-bandwidth connections, while keeping the focus on actionable steps and steady progress.
