How her approaches translate to online work

Julie frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and everyday habits. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current emotional patterns and can help with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Julie will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. She checks in regularly to see which techniques are helpful and adjusts the plan together with the client.

The biography notes that sessions work best when the client is located in Utah and that a computer or laptop and internet connection are recommended for best connection. Because formats were not fully specified, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow quick check-ins during breaks. It can also let people practice new skills in their normal routines while getting guidance from a licensed professional.
