About Julie
Julie Carleton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 14 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and grief. Julie also supports those coping with relationship strain, family conflict, addiction and compassion fatigue.
She uses straightforward conversation to identify what matters most to each person. Sessions are tailored to the individual, with a focus on practical steps and realistic goals. Julie aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion.
Background and approach
Julie helps clients talk through parenting challenges and intimacy-related worries, and she assists with anger, self-esteem and career concerns. She also has experience supporting people living with bipolar condition and those who have experienced trauma and abuse. Her approach is collaborative: the client and she work together to shape the plan.
This can include setting small, achievable goals and trying out new coping strategies between sessions. Julie values steady progress over quick fixes. People who prefer clear, practical guidance tend to find her style helpful.
She offers a calm, non-judgemental space to discuss difficult feelings and decisions. The aim is to build skills that make daily life easier and more manageable.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Julie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach helps people recognise unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, then replace them with more effective responses. This can help with anxiety, low mood and stress by giving clear tools to try between sessions.Another approach centres on processing difficult experiences and building resilience. It supports people who have experienced trauma, loss or long-term stress by creating a gradual plan to address painful memories and reduce their impact on daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences. Together they review what is helping and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy can make it easier to attend sessions from different places and at different times. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera, live chat and text messaging work well for short check-ins or if someone needs flexibility during a busy day. These options help people fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments.
