She practices in New Jersey and uses a practical, down-to-earth approach to help clients manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, sleep problems, and self-esteem concerns.

Online support

Practical approaches and online care

Julie primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and changing behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and stress-related concerns.

In sessions she emphasizes short-term, skills-based work that teaches tools for managing everyday challenges. The aim is to help people try small behavior changes, practice new ways of thinking, and build coping strategies that fit their life.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when that feels helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick updates, brief coaching, or when written reflection feels more natural.

These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or medical schedules. They also allow continuity of care when travel or life changes make in-person visits difficult.
