About Julie
Counsellor Julie Golding is a BACP member with three years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes in the United Kingdom. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.
Julie helps people talk through what is worrying them. She uses straightforward conversation alongside practical techniques. Early sessions focus on what matters most now and on setting small, clear goals for change.
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and psychodynamic thinking to look at patterns in relationships and past experience. She also uses mindfulness to develop present-moment awareness and solution-focused techniques to identify steps that feel achievable. Motivational interviewing is used when people want support making changes but feel stuck.
She aims to make sessions simple and direct. People can expect a calm pace and focused topics rather than long theoretical explanations. Sessions often include discussion, short exercises and reflection between meetings.
Practical matters such as cost and scheduling are handled through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is arranged via the See online counselling options button. Julie works from UK counselling practice standards as a BACP member.
How Julie uses therapeutic approaches in online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds can affect feelings and behaviour now. It can help when issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns or repeated relationship problems are the focus.Mindfulness practice involves short exercises to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without judgement. It can reduce rumination and support anxiety or stress management by bringing attention back to the present.
Solution-focused methods focus on small practical steps and what people can try between sessions. These steps are brief and aimed at creating noticeable change without needing long, detailed plans.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences, then try methods that fit the person and the issue. This is a collaborative process and will be reviewed as therapy continues.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and use shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows work around differing time zones for international clients.
