Julie Kuhn, BACP

Julie Kuhn works with adults facing a wide range of emotional and practical challenges, including anxiety, social and relationship difficulties, low self-worth, anger management, grief and loss, and the effects of chronic illness. She brings personal experience of living with anxiety and depression to her practice, which informs a compassionate understanding of what clients may be going through.

Counselling with Julie is tailored to each person, reflecting the belief that no two life stories are the same. She supports clients in building confidence, reconnecting with others, making clearer choices, valuing themselves, and improving communication. Talking through life events and struggles is treated as a pathway to regaining a sense of control, reducing distressing symptoms, and making meaningful changes.

Her approach is relaxed and warm, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion, so clients can feel comfortable sharing difficult concerns. Julie aims to support and empower people to take the courageous first steps toward better wellbeing. She holds the BACP credential, which denotes membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions help

Julie draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening without judgement and creating a supportive space where the client guides the pace and content of work. This approach helps people feel heard and understood while they explore their priorities and values.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy - CBT - a structured method that helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and develop practical strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety and low mood. CBT is often helpful for problem-focused work and building coping skills.

Mindfulness therapy is incorporated to help people develop present-moment awareness and reduce the intensity of stress and emotional reactivity through simple attention and breathing practices.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Julie works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then adapts the approach to suit the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy with Julie is offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit sessions around work, family, or health needs. These options make it easier to access regular support from a registered professional without needing to travel, and they allow the pace and format of sessions to be tailored to what works best for the client.
