About Julie
Julie Stevens is a licensed professional counselor in Missouri with 18 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and ADHD-related focus and concentration concerns. She speaks English and offers sessions through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Julie approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for the strengths they already have.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps people can take to feel steadier and more capable in daily life. Her work often involves helping people manage panic attacks, social anxiety, workplace stress, and feelings of isolation or shame. She also supports people coping with chronic illness, caregiving strain, and issues around forgiveness and guilt.
Conversations are aimed at improving motivation, memory and concentration, and rebuilding self-love and confidence. Julie emphasizes clear goals and small, achievable changes. She offers a calm, supportive presence while encouraging skills that help outside of sessions.
Parents and caregivers who are feeling overwhelmed can find targeted strategies to reduce stress and regain balance. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions according to therapist availability. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and appointments are offered in several convenient online formats.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Julie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and clearer thinking. One common approach helps people develop coping skills for anxiety and panic - learning short exercises to calm the body, manage overwhelming thoughts, and reduce avoidance. Another approach centers on improving attention and routine for people with focus or ADHD concerns - building strategies for concentration, memory aids, and small habit changes that improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and which techniques feel most useful. They make adjustments as progress is made so the plan fits the person's life and needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared visual tools, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and to practice new skills between sessions.
