About Julie
Julie Storr is a counsellor registered with the BACP and NCPS and has ten years' experience. She brings a background from 25 years in hospitality management and understands the demands of juggling work, running a home and day-to-day pressure. She works with people around stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem and depression, and lists guilt and shame among her focus areas.
Her way of working draws on different approaches rather than a single method. She uses ideas from client-centred work and practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy. She also borrows from existential and solution-focused ideas when they suit the person and the problem.
Sessions begin with an initial conversation to check fit and to agree what to focus on. In practice this means talking through recent events, looking at patterns that keep bringing distress, and trying small, concrete changes to test out between sessions. Julie aims to keep things straightforward and rooted in everyday life.
She also offers support around more specific concerns such as intimacy-related issues, sexuality, kink and alternative sex culture, polyamory, infertility and postpartum struggles. Julie includes practical coaching-style work when clients want concrete problem-solving alongside conversational counselling.
Julie accepts clients from the UK and internationally and holds sessions in English. If someone is thinking about starting, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire first and then schedule an initial chat to talk about next steps.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centred therapy focuses on attentive listening and reflecting back what someone says. Online sessions using this approach tend to centre on the client's experience and priorities, making it useful for issues like relationship strain, identity questions and feelings of shame.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. In online sessions CBT often includes short practical exercises, agreed behavioural experiments and homework to try between meetings, which can help with anxiety, guilt and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss different methods with each person, choosing what fits their goals, preferences and day-to-day life. This means the plan can shift as understanding grows.
The practical advantages of online sessions depend on the formats available, which are not specified in the original profile. Please confirm current session options before booking. In general, digital sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow for shorter focused check-ins, and let people take part without travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can also combine conversational counselling with practical CBT tasks on the days between sessions.
