About Julie

Julie Little is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and relationship strain. She works with worries linked to trauma, addiction, self-esteem, sleep and eating concerns. Julie also supports people facing career pressures, parenting strain and compassion fatigue. She is based in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration.

Julie adopts a warm, caring style and treats each person as the expert on their own life. She draws on client-centred ideas to listen deeply and create space for people to talk through what matters. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques are used alongside solution-focused methods to build practical steps and small experiments that can be tried between sessions.

Her background includes many years supporting people in education and care settings, which informs a practical, down-to-earth way of working. Julie has eight years of direct counselling experience alongside earlier roles supporting young people and families.

Trauma-focused approaches and elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy are brought in when people need help with strong emotions or painful memories. Julie aims to match methods to each person’s needs rather than applying one fixed style.

Sessions are offered in English and Julie accepts international clients. She encourages people to take things at their own pace and to set goals that feel achievable. If someone is unsure where to begin, she helps them clarify the first small step.

How these approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what someone says so they feel heard and understood; it helps when people need a calm space to make sense of difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and gives simple techniques to test and change habits that keep problems going. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on helping people process painful memories and reduce their impact on day-to-day life. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will discuss goals and preferences and together they will choose which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as progress is made or new needs appear. The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy schedule and fewer travel demands. Online work can make it simpler to check in during a lunch break, keep a shorter weekly rhythm, or use worksheets and tools between meetings. Because the original biography does not list which session formats are offered, please confirm current options before booking so you know what will suit your routine and needs.
