About Julie
Julie Wilson is a California LMFT with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, grief, addictions, and issues connected to intimacy and eating or sleeping. She also lists ADHD and a range of related concerns such as attachment issues and family of origin issues.
Her approach is relational and practical. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at patterns that begin in childhood and influence present relationships. She also brings client-centered methods that emphasize listening and collaboration. Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools may appear when emotion regulation and coping skills are needed.
Sessions tend to include noticing recurring roles and expectations learned in the family. She pays attention to deeper themes that sometimes show up as emptiness, guilt, or difficulty trusting. Work can include talking through family dynamics, practicing concrete skills for stress and emotion regulation, and reflecting on life direction and values.
Julie holds two master’s degrees - one in East-West Psychology and one in Counseling Psychology - and she uses that background to combine practical skills with reflection on meaning and unconscious patterns. The profile lists Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Existential and Jungian-influenced ideas among her approaches.
People who choose her often want to understand why old patterns repeat and to develop clearer ways of relating. For those who want to begin, she asks for a brief matching questionnaire and a first session to set goals and priorities.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. Online work can focus on identifying repeating roles from the family of origin and testing new interaction patterns in session. Client-Centered Therapy centers on careful listening and collaboration. In an online appointment that means sessions often begin with the client setting the immediate focus while the therapist reflects and clarifies what matters most.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings concrete coping tools for strong emotions and impulsive behavior. When helpful, the therapist introduces brief skills practice and step-by-step strategies that clients can try between sessions. These approaches are used to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship difficulties in everyday life.
Finding the best method is part of the work itself. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which combination of attachment ideas, client-centered listening, or DBT skills fits best. That decision is reviewed as needs change over time.
Session format details are not specified in the provided profile. Before booking, confirm the current session options. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time so therapy can be kept to a predictable schedule.
