Julie Stevenson, BACP

Julie Stevenson uses a client-centred approach to help people make sense of difficult moments. She focuses on listening closely and creating space for someone to talk through what matters most. Julie holds the BACP credential and is based in the United Kingdom.

She has four years of professional experience working with stress and anxiety. She also supports people dealing with addictions, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and depression. Julie aims to help people notice their strengths and use them to move forward.

In sessions she allows the person to lead the conversation while offering gentle reflection and practical ideas when wanted. The work is paced to suit each person, with attention to what feels manageable in the moment. Julie encourages small steps that build confidence over time.

Her style is straightforward and warm. She recognises that asking for help takes courage and keeps the focus on the person’s goals. Parents reading on a phone will find short, clear language and a calm tone rather than clinical terms.

Julie offers several formats to suit different needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to her availability.

Client-centred care delivered online

Julie works primarily from a client-centred perspective. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting what the person says, and allowing them to lead the pace and priority of sessions. It can be helpful for issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and depression where feeling heard supports change.

The process of finding the best approach is collaborative. Julie will discuss goals, preferences and how someone wants to work, then shape the sessions together. She aims to match the way of working to the person rather than imposing a fixed method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you meet face to face from different locations, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier if being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy days and to use the format that feels most manageable.
