Background and approach
Conversations focus on clearer communication, managing impulses, and building everyday coping skills that actually fit a person's life. Her work draws on client-centered conversations and cognitive-behavioral techniques to spot patterns and try new behaviors. She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness to teach emotion regulation and stress reduction.
Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. Julieann has about 10 years of experience working with individuals and families across a range of concerns. She aims to make therapy a collaborative effort so clients feel understood and involved in planning goals.
Sessions are practical and focused on small, achievable steps. She helps people practice new ways of coping between meetings. The goal is clearer thinking, calmer reactions, and better day-to-day functioning.
Approaches for change and how online therapy helps
Julieann often uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening and building a respectful, nonjudgmental space so people can explore what matters to them. This approach helps when someone needs to sort out values, identity, or relationship priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and habits and to test simple behavioral changes. CBT is practical for anxiety, depression, panic, and problems that interfere with daily life. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are also used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when feelings run high.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. Treatment choices are collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different rhythms. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat or messaging can be used for brief updates, skill practice, or when a shorter touchpoint is preferable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and daily life.
