About Julie
Julie Fraser is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and depression. She works with people facing life transitions, relationship and family problems, grief, and issues with intimacy, eating or sleeping. She brings six years of experience and holds BACP registration, which she uses to guide her practice.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. Julie aims to create an open space where people can speak honestly without fear of judgement.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and collaborative, with attention to what matters most to each person. She emphasises small, realistic steps that can fit into busy lives. Julie draws on client-centred principles to follow each person’s lead and build trust.
She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours. For trauma-related concerns she includes trauma-focused strategies alongside solution-focused work to set short-term goals and track progress. She has experience supporting people with attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, and complex presentations such as co-morbidity and dissociation.
She also works with concerns about body image, eating and food-related problems, anger, self-esteem, and career strain. Julie offers a calm, down-to-earth style and encourages people to bring what matters to them into sessions. She explains options clearly and adjusts the pace to each person’s needs.
The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How Julie uses practical approaches online
Client-centred therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. It means the therapist listens closely and follows what the client finds most important, which helps build trust and shape goals that feel relevant. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and offers clear exercises to try different ways of responding; it is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Julie will discuss options with each person and adapt methods to match their needs, goals and preferences. That makes the work collaborative and keeps the focus on what helps in everyday life rather than on a fixed method.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let people speak face to face when they prefer that interaction. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when someone wants a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who like to write or need ongoing, brief contact between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, childcare or other routines while keeping the same therapeutic focus.
