Dr. Julie Moreno, LPC

Dr. Julie Moreno is a licensed professional counselor in Michigan who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life changes. She works with individuals facing relationship concerns, sleep problems, addiction issues, and questions about identity and intimacy. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, aimed at practical steps people can use day to day.

Julie draws on 14 years of clinical experience to help people build clearer habits of thinking and living. She focuses on helping clients notice unhelpful patterns, try small changes, and practice skills that make everyday life easier. Sessions emphasize real-world tools for coping, problem solving, and improving self-esteem.

Her approach blends several evidence-informed methods to match each person’s needs. That includes work from cognitive behavioral ideas to acceptance-based strategies and attention to attachment patterns. Julie uses these methods to help people sort out difficult emotions and rebuild connections with themselves and others.

She also offers support around aging and caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image and eating concerns, and end-of-life issues. Additional focus areas include autism and intellectual disability, communication problems, and career or life-purpose questions.

Julie aims to create a steady, respectful space where clients set the pace and goals. She encourages small experiments between sessions and practical ways to shift everyday habits and thoughts. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values and take small actions that matter to them. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions because it ties behavior to what a person cares about. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with stress. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and current relationships shape feelings and expectations; it helps people improve connection and manage relationship-related distress.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust over time. This makes therapy a collaborative effort rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Therapists can use the same ACT or CBT exercises online as in person, working on thought patterns and daily habit shifts during or between sessions to help change everyday routines.
