About Julie
Julie Korona is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, depression, coping with life changes, and focus problems related to ADHD. Julie talks through practical problems and helps people find clearer next steps for day-to-day life.
She favors straightforward conversations that center on the client's goals. Sessions often include problem-solving, skill building, and checking how strategies work in real life. Julie draws on approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape sessions.
In practice she listens for what matters to each person and uses simple, evidence-informed techniques to address it. That might mean testing small behavior changes, practicing emotional regulation skills, or revisiting unhelpful thought patterns. Sessions aim to be practical and applicable to work, school, and relationships.
Julie has worked across issues that intersect with aging and caregiving, attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, and communication difficulties. She also has experience with problems like codependency, guilt and shame, hoarding, and coping after disasters. Her background supports clients who need help organizing priorities and managing daily functioning.
People choosing to meet with Julie should expect direct, goal-focused sessions that look at what can change now. To start, clients typically complete an intake to identify priorities and then set short-term goals to track progress.
How Julie’s approaches work for online sessions
Julie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thought patterns that keep them stuck. CBT is practical and often focuses on testing small behavior changes and tracking results, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and concentration problems.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT techniques are often taught in short exercises and can help when feelings are intense or relationships are strained. Client-Centered Therapy underpins her work by keeping the client's goals central and adjusting the pace to fit what each person needs.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to use based on their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying an approach, checking how it feels, and shifting course if something isn’t helping.
