About Julie
Julie Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience. She brings a calm, respectful style and focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship and family concerns. She uses client-centered work that starts with what the person already knows about themself.
Julie also draws on cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are added when clients want skills for daily stress and quicker problem solving.
How Julie works
Julie trained at the University of Central Oklahoma and has worked in outpatient counseling, therapeutic foster care, school-based settings, and adoption services. That variety shaped how she thinks about parenting, attachment, blended family issues, and adoption-related concerns. Her background also informs support for trauma and abuse, domestic violence, and coping after disasters.
Sessions usually focus on concrete steps: identifying strengths, practicing coping strategies, and setting small, doable goals. She offers help for sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD-related challenges, and mood concerns such as bipolar or disruptive mood dysregulation issues. Her style is collaborative and strengths-based.
Julie treats each person as the expert on their life and helps them apply tools that fit their goals. She aims to make therapy understandable and manageable for people juggling busy lives.

How Julie’s Approaches Fit Online Therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building on your strengths. Online sessions let the therapist follow your lead and focus on the issues you name, whether that is stress, grief, or relationship concerns.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches concrete steps to change patterns of thinking and behavior. Online meetings and messaging are useful for setting short-term goals, practicing new skills between sessions, and tracking progress. Mindfulness therapy trains simple attention and breathing skills to lower reactivity and improve sleep or anxiety, and these exercises translate well to video or audio guidance.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. That collaborative process helps match techniques like CBT or mindfulness to what actually feels useful.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls approximate an in-person conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when movement or audio-only check-ins work better. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, quick skill reinforcement, and on-the-go support between longer sessions.
