About Julie
Julie Little is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family concerns, trauma and abuse, bereavement, and parenting strains.
She draws on work she has done supporting families and young people in the education and care sector for over 20 years. That background informs how she listens to problems that happen at home. She treats clients as the experts in their own lives and looks for practical ways to use existing strengths.
Sessions focus on everyday problems in clear terms. Julie uses conversation to make sense of what is happening. She helps people identify small changes that ease pressure and improve how they cope with difficult moments.
Her methods include client-centred techniques, cognitive behavioural ideas and elements of dialectical behaviour therapy and trauma-focused work. She will explain tools and exercises and practise them together so a person can try them between sessions.
People coming for help with parenting or family stress can expect straightforward, calm discussion about what is and isn’t working at home. She also addresses issues such as eating and sleeping difficulties, grief, addictions and career stress.
Julie aims to be practical and respectful in sessions. If someone wants to begin, they follow the site's sign-up flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says. Online this means time to tell your story and have the counsellor help you notice strengths and priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) gives clear steps for changing thoughts and behaviours. Online CBT often uses short exercises and homework tasks that you can try between sessions. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on reducing the lasting effects of distressing events. In remote sessions this can involve paced discussion and grounding skills to manage strong emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about goals and preferences and will adjust methods based on what helps most. That collaboration helps decide whether to use more CBT tasks, DBT skills, or trauma-focused techniques as sessions progress.
The site sign-up flow explains how to get started, but please confirm which session formats are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If someone prefers a particular way of meeting, check the available options during the matching and booking steps.
