01About Julie
Julie Knight is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with three decades of experience in mental health. She focuses on common worries like stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Julie also helps with relationship concerns, trauma, grief, parenting stress, and career strain.
She works with people navigating identity questions, including LGBT and gender dysphoria issues. Her style is direct and person-centered. Sessions aim to build strengths, set clear goals, and teach practical skills people can use right away.
Background and approach
Julie uses familiar, straightforward language so busy parents can follow along without jargon. She has worked across inpatient psychiatric units, crisis response programs, and outpatient therapy settings. That range shaped a calm, steady approach to crises and everyday challenges alike.
Julie draws on many tools so she can tailor sessions to each person's needs. Common tools include cognitive techniques to change unhelpful thinking, acceptance strategies to manage painful emotions, and attachment-focused work to improve close relationships. She also uses skills from dialectical behavior approaches for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
These methods are mixed into a supportive, collaborative process. Julie also supports people who are highly sensitive, introverted, or neurodivergent. She helps clients understand personality and communication styles so they can feel more confident and get along better with others.
Her focus is on practical insight that lasts beyond any single problem. To begin, she guides people toward clear goals and concrete steps. Conversations cover what is most urgent first, then build long-term coping and self-understanding.

04Online support
How her approaches fit with online therapy
Julie blends cognitive behavioral techniques and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and learn new skills. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way, and then practicing practical alternatives. ACT teaches acceptance of difficult feelings while helping people commit to actions aligned with their values.She also uses attachment-based ideas to improve how people connect with others. That work looks at patterns of relating, helps identify unhelpful cycles, and builds clearer communication and trust in relationships. These approaches suit concerns like anxiety, relationship strain, grief, trauma, and mood differences.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different tools together until something fits. Sessions focus on collaboration, clear steps, and skills you can use between meetings.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for short check-ins, written reflections, or ongoing coaching-style support. These options make therapy more flexible so people can fit it into busy family and work routines.
