About Julie
Julie Mitton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Utah with 18 years of experience. She works with adults on issues like stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting concerns, and guilt and shame.
She describes therapy as a team effort. Sessions focus on practical coping skills and building confidence through new behaviors. Julie uses straightforward techniques to help people manage day-to-day problems and emotional pain.
Her background includes outpatient and school-based mental health work. That experience informs how she supports people facing life changes, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and end-of-life concerns. She has also worked with trauma, abuse, and intimacy-related issues.
Julie uses a mix of approaches including attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior tools, and emotionally focused methods. In sessions she draws from these approaches to help people unpack patterns, improve communication, and try new ways of relating.
She notes practical needs for virtual sessions, advising a computer or laptop and an internet connection for best results. Julie limits practice to people who are physically located in Utah during sessions. She mentions being a parent and sometimes having a cat appear during meetings, which reflects her down-to-earth style.

How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can be used to notice recurring relationship themes and try different responses in real time. Client-centered work centers on the individual's experience and preferences, offering space to decide goals and pace that fit everyday life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and includes practical exercises people can try between sessions.Choosing the right mix of methods is collaborative. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels manageable. Together they will test approaches and change course as needed rather than committing to one method up front.
The profile specifically mentions virtual sessions and recommends using a computer or laptop with an internet connection for best results. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people practice new communication or coping skills in the settings where they actually live and work.
