About Julie

Julie Hatfield is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) authorized in Montana and North Dakota with 12 years of professional experience. She works with adults on common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges. She also helps people with relationship and family issues, grief, anger, ADHD, and career-related stress.

Julie focuses on practical, straightforward work in sessions. She listens to what matters most and helps people talk through problems and next steps. Conversations often include identifying stress points, building coping strategies, and practicing clearer communication.

Clients who bring complicated family situations can address blended family issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and family of origin patterns. She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, and first responder-related pressures. Julie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide these conversations.

Her approach is respectful and attentive to each person’s situation. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and suggests small, workable changes to daily routines and interactions. Sessions aim to make handling difficult moments more manageable.

People choosing to start therapy are invited to a straightforward intake process. The initial steps include a short matching questionnaire and scheduling the first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Julie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address practical problems. One common approach focuses on skills to manage anxiety and stress, helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral changes to reduce overwhelm. Another common focus is trauma-informed work, which slows the pace, names reactions to difficult events, and builds step-by-step coping tools to handle strong feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means checking in about what helps, adjusting methods over time, and agreeing on clear goals for sessions.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life because it reduces travel time and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to work with a licensed professional from a distance if relocating or travel is a factor.
