About Julie
Julie Jamieson welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or big life changes. She writes plainly and listens closely to understand what each person needs. Julie wants clients to feel heard and to leave sessions with clear next steps they can try between meetings.
Julie is an ACA counsellor with five years' experience working in Australia. She meets people where they are and adapts her approach to the problem at hand.
Background and approach
That can mean building emotion regulation skills one week and practising coping strategies the next. Her work often involves trauma and attachment concerns. Julie draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and EMDR when past events are getting in the way of daily life.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and DBT-style skills for anxiety, low mood and impulsive behaviours. Sessions are practical and paced for the individual. Julie uses conversation, skill practice and collaborative planning so people leave with tools they can use.
She also helps people manage issues such as ADHD, addictions, chronic illness and family-of-origin concerns. If someone is unsure where to begin, Julie helps set simple, achievable goals and reviews progress over time. Her style is calm and straightforward, aiming to reduce overwhelm and increase confidence in coping with life.
How Julie's approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help identify those patterns and practise new ways of relating to others. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions; it uses exercises and homework to change unhelpful habits and reduce anxiety or low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps when memories or trauma keep causing distress, using structured processing to reduce the intensity of those memories.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Julie will discuss options and adapt methods to fit the person's goals, pace and preferences. That collaborative planning means treatment can shift if something isn't working or if priorities change.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging gives practical flexibility. Video calls are good for a full face-to-face style conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins, follow-up support and times when a written format helps reflect on feelings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family commitments.
