Attachment, CBT, and collaborative online care
Julia uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust; this approach can be especially helpful for people struggling with intimacy, abandonment, or ongoing relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy is offered as a warm, non-judgemental framework that prioritises the client’s perspective and pace - it supports those seeking to build self-awareness, self-esteem, and personal agency. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides structured techniques to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, making it useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Julia works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions over time, combining supportive listening with practical tools where appropriate.
Online therapy with Julia is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options help make therapy more accessible for people balancing work, family, or different time zones, while allowing registered professionals and therapists to maintain continuity of care regardless of location.
