About Julie

Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addiction and low self-esteem. She supports clients with relationship worries, grief, eating concerns, anger and life changes.

Her work also covers ADHD, bipolar issues, career concerns and a range of personality and behaviour problems. Julie has 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist, counsellor and life coach. She believes good progress starts when client and therapist fit well together, so an initial call is used to check that rapport.

Background and approach

She sees people as more than their behaviours and looks for the strengths each person already has. Her style is flexible and direct. Sessions aim to remove limiting beliefs, reduce unhelpful emotions and set clear goals.

Techniques are chosen to suit the person rather than the other way round, and sessions balance practical steps with time to talk through difficult feelings. Julie draws on a range of approaches including Trauma-Focused Therapy, Client-Centred methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and hypnotherapy. She uses coaching tools in some sessions to clarify values and future goals, and to help people make lasting changes.

She works online with people in the United Kingdom and internationally. The first session is used to agree aims and a practical plan. Julie frames the work as collaborative and encourages people to take an active role in their progress.

Ways of working Julie names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Julie adapts trauma‑informed and practical therapies online

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process painful events and the feelings that stay with them afterwards. It focuses on safe, step-by-step work to reduce the impact of past harm and improve daily coping. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the process and relies on a supportive relationship, listening closely and following the client's pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns and manage anxiety, low mood or obsessive thinking.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Julie talks with each person to agree goals and then chooses methods together. That collaborative planning helps create a clear plan and gives the client tools to use between sessions.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a short break or use less bandwidth, and messaging or chat can support quick check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options make it easier to work around schedules and to keep therapy going when travel or time is difficult.
