About Julie

Julie Kuhn is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports people facing grief, trauma and the effects of chronic illness.

Julie focuses on practical steps people can use right away. She helps people notice thoughts and habits that get in the way, and then try different responses. Sessions aim to build confidence, improve decision making and strengthen communication skills.

Her approach draws on several methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centred work, mindfulness and somatic techniques. That mix is used to address emotional symptoms, unhelpful thinking patterns and physical reactions linked to stress and trauma.

Julie has particular interest in supporting people dealing with cancer, chronic pain, codependency and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues like guilt, shame, isolation and women's matters. Her background includes personal experience of anxiety and depression, which she says helps her understand some client experiences.

People who meet with Julie usually talk through their immediate problems and try concrete strategies between sessions. She emphasises regular review of progress and adapts the approach based on what is helpful. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire to match goals and arrange an initial session.

How CBT, client-centred and mindfulness approaches work online

Julie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of responding. CBT sessions often focus on breaking problems into small, manageable steps and trying practical experiments between meetings.

She also uses client-centred methods where the counsellor listens without directing, helping the person find their own solutions and priorities. Mindfulness practices are introduced to support attention, reduce rumination and calm physical reactions to stress.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Julie will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, and together they will decide which methods to try and when to review them. This collaborative process helps shape clear, short-term goals and practical exercises.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to keep therapy practical and accessible while focusing on measurable steps and real-life practice.
