About Julie

Julie Burr is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Missouri with ten years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family of origin issues, grief, depression, addictions, and related challenges. Julie also supports people facing intimacy-related problems, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes.

Julie uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside mindfulness and client-centered methods. She draws on those approaches to help people notice unhelpful patterns, practice new skills, and try small changes that can make daily life easier. Sessions focus on concrete steps rather than abstract theories, with attention to how family of origin patterns influence current choices and relationships.

Her background includes personal and professional experience with loss, long-term health concerns, and relationship endings. That perspective informs an emphasis on coping skills, emotion regulation, and finding manageable routines when life feels overwhelming. She also pays attention to caregiving stress, aging issues, and blended family dynamics when those come up.

Julie mentions interests in movement, nutrition, travel, and aspects of faith that some clients find helpful. She integrates practical strategies people can try between sessions and checks progress as part of ongoing work. For anyone wanting to explore how early family roles affect today's patterns, she works to identify concrete habits to change and simple skills to practice.

She offers services in English and practices in Missouri as an LCSW. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Julie commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, or stress. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills useful for strong emotions and relationship strains. Mindfulness practices help people notice patterns and respond with more choice rather than reacting automatically.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client look at current goals, what has worked in the past, and practical constraints to pick methods to try. She checks in and adjusts techniques as progress or obstacles appear so the work stays focused on real-life problems.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Clients who prefer less visual interaction sometimes choose call-based check-ins, while others use video for fuller face-to-face conversation; the therapist will discuss what fits each person’s routine and needs.
