Julie Little , BACP

Julie Little is a counsellor with eight years of clinical experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strains, grief, trauma and a wide range of life challenges. She works with concerns such as body image, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting stress, addiction, low self-esteem, bipolar mood issues and compassion fatigue. Sessions are offered in English and Julie is based in the United Kingdom.

Julie describes a warm, caring style and starts by listening to each person's story. She treats the person as the expert in their own life and looks for strengths that can be used to make small, steady changes. Practical techniques are offered alongside space to talk about painful events and confusing feelings.

Her work draws on several evidence-informed approaches. Cognitive behavioural tools help with unhelpful thinking and behavioural patterns, while trauma-focused methods address the impact of past harm. Dialectical behaviour skills support emotional regulation and coping when feelings feel overwhelming.

Julie also uses client-centred and solution-focused ideas to keep sessions grounded and goal-oriented. That means conversations focus on what matters now and on steps that feel achievable. People are invited to set goals and review progress at a pace that suits them.

Before becoming a counsellor, Julie spent over 20 years supporting families and young people in education and care settings. She holds BACP registration, which is recorded as BACP, and brings that background into her practical, compassionate approach.

Therapy approaches you can use online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say and helps them find their own solutions; this suits people who need time to make sense of feelings and regain confidence.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours influence each other. It uses straightforward exercises and practical changes to reduce anxiety, manage mood, improve sleep and tackle unhelpful habits.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and resolving the effects of past harm. It offers structured ways to process difficult memories and learn coping skills for emotional triggers and flashbacks.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will talk with clients about their needs, goals and preferences and agree on methods together. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they feel useful and manageable.

Online therapy can make regular support easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls replicate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can be used for brief check-ins or between-session support. These options allow sessions around work, family commitments or when travel is difficult, while keeping focus on progress and practical tools.
