About Julie
Julie Krupinski is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 30 years of experience. She focuses on issues adults often face at home and in relationships, such as stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, grief, family concerns, and intimacy-related struggles. She also works with people dealing with codependency, communication problems, control issues, and life changes.
Julie approaches therapy with respect for the person's own experience. She uses evidence-based methods and listens without judgment. Sessions aim to build practical skills, strengthen coping, and reduce patterns that cause repeated problems.
Her work draws on several clinical approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered methods. She also uses mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing to support change and clarify goals. Those methods guide conversations and exercises during sessions.
Julie has worked in many settings over three decades and is familiar with 12-step programs and pathways for people managing substance use. Her background gives her experience with mood disorders, trauma and abuse, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and compassion fatigue among caregivers.
People who choose Julie can expect straightforward, practical talks about behavior, choices, and coping. She focuses on helping individuals notice patterns, try different strategies, and build on what already works for them.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Julie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice what matters most to them and take steps toward those values, even when feelings are difficult. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety, and patterns that keep people stuck.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT offers concrete skills for mood, anxiety, and impulsive patterns. Client-centered work shapes the pace and focus of sessions, with the therapist following the person’s concerns and encouraging their own insights.
Choosing the right approach is part of working together. Julie will help clients decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress and needs change.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday routine, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can tailor tools and exercises used in ACT and CBT to work in remote sessions, focusing on practical skill-building and brief between-session practices.
