Julie Stevens, BACP

Julie Stevens is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress and anxiety, grief and loss, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges linked to life changes. She creates a non-judgemental space where clients can talk openly about difficult feelings and find practical ways forward. Julie holds BACP, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Julie has four years of professional counselling experience. She also has a long career as a Mental Health Nurse spanning more than 20 years, and brings that practical knowledge into sessions. Her way of working is warm and person-focused, with attention to what each person needs in the moment. In sessions Julie uses a Client-Centred Therapy approach. That means she listens deeply, follows the client’s pace, and helps people make sense of their own experiences. She aims to help clients build confidence, improve communication, and find coping strategies that fit day-to-day life. People often come to her for help with parenting strain, body image worries, caregiver stress, chronic illness impacts, and work or career pressures. She also helps with complex emotional difficulties such as attachment concerns, abandonment issues, and mood challenges. Julie encourages people to take small, manageable steps toward change. Conversations are straightforward and focused on practical next steps. She works with each person to co-create goals and check progress as therapy continues.

How Client-Centred Therapy can work online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what they hear, and encourages the person to lead the conversation. This approach often helps with anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, relationship concerns and life transitions by fostering self-understanding and personal agency.

Julie's background as a Mental Health Nurse and her counselling experience mean she blends practical knowledge with a person-focused style. She will collaborate with each client to decide whether the Client-Centred approach fits their needs, and she will adjust how sessions run based on what the person finds most helpful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time and allowing sessions at times that suit work or family routines. It can also make shorter check-ins easier when life feels hectic, or allow someone to choose audio-only contact if they prefer not to be on camera. Because the specific session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm the available options before booking so you know what will work best for your situation.
