About Julie
Julie Nesbitt is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She helps people talk through problems and build more workable ways of relating to themselves and others.
She has lived outside the United States for 22 years and brings that personal perspective to issues around returning home and the expat experience. That background informs her approach when adults face reentry challenges or the particular dynamics of third culture kid relationships.
Julie also has personal and professional experience with adoption and foster care matters. She uses that background to help people address attachment issues, family of origin questions, and the practical and emotional parts of adoption-related relationships.
Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT - to help clients clarify values and take committed steps, client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on the person in front of her, and systemic therapy to look at patterns inside family and relationship systems. Sessions often involve talking through current difficulties, trying new ways of communicating, and practicing small behavioral experiments between meetings.
Julie is a Christian and can include Christian faith in counseling when requested. She also respects other faith positions and can work without faith content when that is preferred.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking concrete steps in that direction. It helps with anxiety, stress, and decisions that feel stuck by encouraging small, values-based actions.Client-centered therapy keeps the conversation focused on the person and their experience. The therapist listens with attention and follows the client’s lead to build better self-understanding and stronger coping skills.
Systemic therapy looks at patterns across relationships and family dynamics. It can help identify repeating cycles that affect mood, communication, or commitment issues and suggest different ways to respond.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with clients to decide which approaches to try based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made or new issues appear.
