About Julie

Julie Allen, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), holds a Georgia license and has 20 years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, mood disorders including bipolar, and addictions. She describes therapy as working with the client’s own story and strengths to address life challenges.

Julie uses a client-centered stance. She treats the person as the expert on their life and helps them build on existing strengths. Sessions involve talking through problems, identifying patterns, and finding practical ways to cope and change.

Her background includes substantial work with survivors of sexual assault and people managing serious mental health issues and recovery. She also reports experience supporting LGBT people and those navigating grief, parenting challenges, or major life transitions. Julie notes that spiritual or nonreligious clients can both be welcomed in her practice.

Treatment approaches she lists include client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and solution-focused work. These methods are used to address present stressors, reshape unhelpful thinking, and make concrete changes in daily life.

Julie aims for straightforward sessions that identify what is most pressing and usable. She helps people develop coping skills, plan next steps, and adjust patterns that maintain distress. Practical problem solving and attention to personal history are part of her routine practice.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The therapist follows the client's lead, highlights strengths, and helps the client describe what matters most. This approach supports coping with stress, relationship struggles, and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence. It teaches practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation through homework and structured discussion.

Narrative therapy helps people separate themselves from their problems by examining the stories they tell about their lives. It can be useful for trauma, identity concerns, and rebuilding after loss.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the client's goals, and adjust as work proceeds. Clients help set priorities and evaluate whether an approach feels useful.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when helpful. Ask about practical arrangements and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
