About Julie
Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE is a counsellor and psychotherapist with 25 years' experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and self‑esteem struggles. She helps with relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, career questions and ADHD. Her work also covers a wide range of related problems such as eating issues, obsessive behaviours, phobias and process addictions.
Julie places the relationship between client and therapist at the centre of her work. She uses Client-Centred Therapy alongside approaches such as cognitive behavioural methods, emotionally-focused techniques and hypnotherapy. Sessions are led by the person's needs, and she looks to build rapport quickly so clients can talk honestly about what matters to them.
In practice she treats each person as more than their behaviours and focuses on their strengths. She often combines talking therapy with practical coaching tools to help people set goals and make changes. Her approach includes techniques aimed at identifying and shifting limiting beliefs and unhelpful patterns.
Julie describes some work as fast and goal-focused when appropriate, using methods that aim to get to root causes and reduce repeated visits. She also offers longer term support for people who want ongoing change and exploration. The initial phone call is used to check fit and clarify what someone hopes to achieve.
Based in the United Kingdom, Julie works with people online and internationally. She invites people to begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions that suit their circumstances.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a trusting relationship and listening without judgement so the person can explore what matters most. It is about supporting people to access their own strengths and make decisions that fit their life.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses clear, practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. It often suits people wanting structured ways to manage anxiety, low mood or compulsive behaviours.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and shift emotional reactions and can support work on relationships, attachment and trauma. It aims to create new ways of responding rather than repeating old patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that match the person's goals, needs and preferences. That may mean combining listening-based work with goal-oriented exercises or brief, focused techniques depending on what the person wants to achieve.
Julie offers online therapy for people in the UK and internationally, but the biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel and choose quieter surroundings. They can also allow shorter check-ins or focused goal sessions when that suits a person's routine.
