About Julie
Julie James is a counsellor who helps people struggling with stress, anxiety and panic attacks. She also supports those facing grief, low self-esteem, ADHD concerns and major life changes. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at making the first step easier to take.
She works in a person-centred way that keeps each session focused on the person in front of her. Julie blends Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Humanistic Person-Centred counselling and draws on Transactional Analysis to look at how people relate to each other. This mix is used flexibly to suit each individual rather than following a single method.
Sessions are practical and conversation-led. Julie helps people notice thoughts and patterns that raise anxiety, then tries out small changes to reduce their impact. When grief or loss is present, she offers steady support and space to process emotions at a manageable pace.
Her approach aims to build confidence and coping skills for everyday life. She keeps things compassionate and respectful, and encourages clients to set realistic goals they can act on between sessions. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
Julie holds BACP, which indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has three years of clinical experience working with the concerns listed above in the United Kingdom.
Practical approaches for anxiety and panic online
Julie uses a blend of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Humanistic Person-Centred counselling in her work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety and panic. Humanistic Person-Centred counselling offers an accepting space to reflect, helping people make sense of feelings and find their own solutions.She also draws on Transactional Analysis to look at how people relate to others and the role different interaction styles play in maintaining stress. Each approach is explained in simple terms and chosen to match the issue being addressed, whether panic symptoms, low self-esteem or grief.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Julie works collaboratively to identify what feels most helpful, adjusting methods as goals and needs become clearer. This means the plan can change over time if something else seems more useful.
