About Julie
Julie Chinni is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas with nine years of experience. She works with adults and teens who are dealing with things like anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and ADHD.

Background and approach
Her work often addresses grief, anger, and life transitions, as well as family and relationship concerns from an individual perspective. She also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image struggles, and issues like codependency or commitment worries. Julie draws on several therapy styles to fit each person’s needs.
She uses tools from cognitive behavioral and acceptance-based approaches to shift unhelpful thoughts and build workable habits. Solution-focused techniques help set short-term goals and track progress. People can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental space where choices are discussed openly.
Julie helps clients make informed decisions and understands taking those steps can feel risky. She aims to reduce the symptoms that brought someone to therapy and to strengthen coping for everyday life.
Practical approaches for online counseling
Julie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and some stress-related patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and practicing actions that align with what matters, which can help with chronic worry, trauma recovery, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the client’s experience guides the work and self-direction is supported.Choosing the right method is part of the process. Julie collaborates with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. She may mix techniques so sessions stay practical and focused on what the client wants to change or manage.
Online therapy offers several useful formats: video calls for face-to-face discussion, phone sessions when bandwidth or movement is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing notes and reflections. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, maintain progress between meetings, and pick the format that feels most comfortable for regular work.
