About Julie
Julie Fraser is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationships, eating difficulties and the practical strains of life change.
She uses clear, direct conversation to help people sort out what matters to them right now. Sessions focus on what is happening day to day, how feelings and behaviours connect, and small changes that make routines easier to manage. Julie aims for straightforward, honest sessions rather than jargon or long lectures.
Her work draws on several approaches including client-centred ways of listening, cognitive behavioural ideas about thoughts and behaviours, and solution-focused steps that set short-term goals. Julie also brings trauma-informed care when earlier harm still affects daily life. She matches method to the concern and the person rather than insisting on a single technique.
People who come to her often want help with sleep, eating, low mood, relationship strain, or the stress of new adult roles such as parenting and early career pressures. She also responds to attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, and issues linked to autism and Asperger Syndrome.
Julie uses plain language in sessions and sets practical aims with measurable steps. To begin she asks people to describe their current problem, what they hope will change, and what fits into their weekly routine. This keeps the work focused and realistic.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Julie uses client-centred listening to help people talk through their priorities and feel understood. This approach places the person's concerns at the centre and is useful for sorting out relationships, parenting worries and general life stress.She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT is practical and helps with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and eating-related patterns by teaching simple techniques people can practise between sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Julie discusses options with each person and agrees which ways of working to try based on goals, preferences and how the problem shows up in daily life. That collaborative selection helps make sessions feel relevant and achievable.
The biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a study or work week, reduce travel time and allow quick check-ins when needed. Some formats also allow shorter updates when a full session is not possible, which can help maintain progress between longer meetings.
