Julie Lynn Stanton, LCSW

Julie Lynn Stanton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 30 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, addictions, and family of origin issues. She also addresses intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem, career stress, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.

Her practice includes both individual and group work across a wide socioeconomic range. Sessions often focus on concrete skills for communication, emotional regulation, and coping with life changes. She pays attention to how past family patterns affect current behavior and relationships.

Julie uses practical therapy methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thinking, try new strategies, and build everyday skills for managing moods and relationships.

She describes therapy as a collaborative partnership. The therapist and client identify the issues the client wants to address and work together toward clearer goals. Julie emphasizes developing competence, finding meaning, and reducing the blocks that keep people from handling life’s demands.

Her work also touches on aging and geriatric concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. People who want a straightforward, skill-focused approach to old family patterns and current struggles will find this practice oriented toward practical steps.

Julie asks clients to be active participants in planning work in therapy. She blends skills training, reflective conversation, and behavioral practice to help people make improvements they can carry into daily life.
