Background and approach
Sessions focus on skills that can be used between meetings, not just conversation during them. She uses a mix of proven methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to reduce unhelpful thinking and manage strong emotions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are also part of her work, helping people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values.
Julianna adapts the pace to match each person's needs. She helps clients practice coping strategies for panic, chronic stress, and mood swings. Practical tools and short exercises are common in sessions so people leave with something to try right away.
Her background includes work in Illinois and professional training reflected by her LCPC and LMHC credentials. Julianna speaks English and offers multiple online session formats like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck on them and then choose actions that reflect their values. It is useful for stress, life changes, and symptoms that come with mood conditions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on changing unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. It often includes brief exercises and practical homework between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, symptoms, and daily life. Together they try methods for a few sessions and adjust what is used based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper work. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging let people use brief written check-ins, practice skills, or keep therapy going between appointments.
