About Julie

Julie Storr is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS and has practised for 10 years in the United Kingdom. She draws on a background in long-term hospitality management to understand the pressure of working full time while running a home. Julie lists stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem and depression among the concerns she works with.

Julie uses an integrative approach, which means she looks at a range of ways of working and borrows useful ideas from different methods. She will talk through what is happening and what a useful next step might look like, rather than offering one fixed route. Sessions focus on practical conversation and finding changes that fit your life.

She often helps people with relationship questions, sexuality and issues that touch on identity, including LGBT concerns. Additional areas she mentions are grief, career and coping with life changes, as well as sexual subcultures such as BDSM and kink when this is relevant to the work.

Julie also supports people through fertility and pregnancy related distress, postpartum depression and end-of-life matters, and she can address communication problems, infidelity and separation. She lists money worries, feelings of emptiness, isolation and questions about life purpose as topics she will explore with clients.

Julie prefers an initial chat to check fit and to plan next steps together. She accepts international clients and provides sessions in English. If you choose to proceed she asks that you complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so you can meet and decide how to continue.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Julie commonly uses Client-Centred work, which focuses on listening and building a working relationship so the client can lead the topics and pace. This approach helps with issues like low self-esteem, relationship doubts and general distress.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to try practical ways of changing them. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression and stress where concrete strategies and short-term tasks help manage symptoms.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree together which approaches to try and how to adapt them over time. This is a collaborative decision rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments around study, work or busy days and avoiding travel time. Online work can also make it easier to keep a shorter check-in when needed or to choose not to use video if that helps you engage. Confirm the specific session options available before booking so you know how Julie runs appointments.
