About Julianne

Julianne DeMedici is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Nevada with four years of clinical experience. She works with people experiencing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, eating concerns, self-esteem problems, career strain, and related issues like guilt and shame. Her work is described as inquisitive, direct, and collaborative.

Julianne draws on a background that includes a Master of Social Work, two Master of Arts degrees in Health and Wellness Psychology and Organizational Communication, and a graduate certificate in Creativity and Innovation. That mix shapes how she looks at problems: health, communication, and work life are often connected, and therapy often explores where those parts meet.

Sessions pay attention to patterns that developed over time. She helps people look at how certain behaviors or beliefs began, what they once did for them, and why they keep happening now. This includes examining control around food or exercise, substance use, secrecy in relationships, or rigid expectations tied to career or role.

Professional life and caregiving roles often come up in sessions. Julianne describes how career demands, leadership roles, or financial pressure can shift a person's sense of self and affect relationships. She talks through how these pressures show up and how they have been managed.

Her approach blends psychodynamic and relational perspectives with elements of cognitive behavioral work, acceptance and commitment ideas, and motivational interviewing when appropriate. The focus is on understanding what sustains a problem and what would need to change to live differently. Therapy proceeds from each person’s history and current circumstances.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Julianne draws mainly from psychodynamic and relational perspectives, which focus on how past relationships and repeated patterns shape current feelings and behavior. This type of work looks at underlying beliefs and longstanding ways of relating to others, and it can be useful for issues like guilt, shame, and recurring relationship patterns.

She also integrates cognitive behavioral techniques that break problems into specific thoughts and behaviors to change how someone responds day to day. These methods can help with anxiety, eating concerns, and managing unhelpful routines. Motivational interviewing is used when change feels difficult or ambivalent; it supports noticing mixed feelings and deciding what matters most.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Julianne approaches this collaboratively, starting from a person’s history, current pressures, and goals. She and the client decide together which strategies to try and adjust them over time based on what is helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how she is meeting with clients. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a work break or avoiding travel time. Therapists can also adapt techniques for remote sessions, focusing on what can be practiced between meetings to address guilt, shame, and related struggles.
