About Julie
Julie Little is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, bereavement, and issues around parenting and blended family life.
She uses straightforward, people-focused ways of working. Sessions centre on what a person wants to change and what helps them cope day to day. She aims to listen, reflect back what she hears, and help a client spot practical steps they can try between meetings.
Before moving into counselling, Julie spent over 20 years supporting families and young people in education and care settings. That background informs her practical approach to family and parenting questions, including the pressures that come with new stepparent roles or blended households.
Her methods draw on client-centred ideas and structured models such as cognitive behavioural and solution-focused work. Those approaches are used to tackle anxious thinking, improve communication, and set small, achievable goals. Trauma-focused methods are introduced when past events are getting in the way of daily life.
Sessions are conversational and task-oriented when needed. Julie prefers short, clear steps and uses exercises that can be practised between sessions. People who want help with grief, addiction-related coping, self-esteem, or changes at work and home may find this a practical fit.
How Julie uses practical approaches for online work
Julie draws on client-centred work and cognitive behavioural approaches to help people deal with anxious thoughts, relationship problems, and everyday stress. Client-centred work focuses on listening and understanding a person’s perspective so they feel heard and can decide what matters most. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns.She also uses elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy when emotion regulation and interpersonal difficulties are a focus. That approach offers skills for managing strong feelings and improving communication in tense moments. Together these methods give a mix of listening, skills practice, and small tasks to try between sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with a client to decide what helps, based on their goals and preferences. If trauma is part of the picture, trauma-focused techniques can be introduced carefully and at a pace the client chooses.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around family routines, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins where useful. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which session length and style will best match practical needs.
