About Julie
Julie Perry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 27 years of experience. She practices in South Carolina and works with people who face stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, depression, ADHD, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem struggles.
Julie uses clear, practical methods to help people notice thoughts and habits that get in the way. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to offer structured ways to try different responses. Sessions focus on skills people can use between appointments to manage mood and behavior.
She helps clients break problems into small, manageable steps. Conversations often include identifying unhelpful thinking, testing assumptions, and practicing new behaviors. Julie also addresses relationship patterns such as attachment and communication concerns that affect everyday life.
Her background includes many years working with mood disorders, trauma and abuse, and issues like divorce and separation. She supports people coping with seasonal affective disorder, personality-related challenges, and recovery after sexual assault and abuse.
Julie expects the work to be collaborative and practical. She encourages people to try small experiments, review what works, and adjust plans as needed. To begin, readers can use the See online therapy options button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How CBT and DBT are used in online sessions
Julie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in straightforward, skills-focused ways. CBT involves noticing thoughts and testing whether they match reality, then practicing different responses to change mood and behavior; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT focuses on building practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness; it can help when emotions feel overwhelming or communication breaks down.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust methods based on what helps. That collaborative process guides which skills get prioritized in sessions and homework between meetings.
The therapist's specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow focused skill practice between meetings. Some formats also let people use audio-only check-ins, shorter appointments, or sessions that fit a lunch break, which can be useful for managing symptoms alongside daily life.
