About Julie
Julie Gregory-Bateman offers a calm, person-focused approach built around Client-Centred Therapy. She meets people where they are and helps them talk through stress, anxiety, grief and difficult life changes at a comfortable pace. Julie presents as warm and non-judgemental, aiming to make it easier to think about difficult feelings and choices.
Julie works in a way that lets people decide whether to focus on present problems or look back at earlier experiences. That mix can help reduce anger, sadness and self-doubt that affect daily life. She describes sessions as a place to be heard and to begin finding small, practical changes.
Her background includes a Master of Science degree with distinction in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy, a Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy Skills, and an Advanced Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Julie is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and holds an accreditation certificate in dementia-related care.
Before training as a counsellor she had a career in business management, including finance, logistics, procurement and personnel. That experience informs a practical, down-to-earth style and an awareness of how life pressures affect mood and decisions.
Away from work she volunteers locally, supports community projects and enjoys outdoor time with the family dog. To begin, readers are invited to use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions.
How Julie's approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. It gives space to talk at your own speed and to decide what matters most. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood and life decisions by building understanding and trust.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how they affect how people feel and behave. It is useful when difficulties stem from early bonds or current relationship struggles, and it can reduce feelings of isolation and mistrust.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Julie will work with the person to decide whether client-centred work, attachment ideas, CBT techniques, or trauma-focused ways are the best match for current needs and goals. She aims to adapt the style as conversations and priorities change.
Confirm the exact session options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling. Some formats use less bandwidth or are shorter check-ins, which can help on busy days or during work breaks. Ask about the practical options when you start the matching questionnaire to find a setup that fits everyday life.
