Julie's way of working

Julie offers a person-centred approach to therapy and will incorporate a range of other therapeutic techniques such as cognitive-behaviour therapy (CBT) and solution focused therapy where she feels this will be helpful. She may use a single approach or a combination of approaches and techniques depending on requirements and preferences of each individual. She believes the most important part of therapy is offering an accepting and safe space for each client to explore what is causing distress. 

Julie offers short-term or longer term online counselling and psychotherapy.
