About Julie
Julie Durmush is a counsellor who works in a person-centred way and adapts to each person's needs. She brings six years of experience and an NCPS registration. Julie aims to create a kind, non-judgemental space where people can be heard and begin to find clarity.
She uses a blend of approaches rather than one fixed method. That means sessions can include trauma-focused work, cognitive behavioural techniques, emotionally-focused methods and mindfulness, alongside client-centred listening.
Background and approach
Julie describes the relationship she builds with people as collaborative and trusting. Her practice supports people dealing with stress and anxiety, low mood and depression, relationship challenges and grief. She also helps with trauma and abuse, ADHD concerns, issues around self-esteem, and questions linked to gender and sexuality.
Additional areas she addresses include attachment and abandonment, dissociation, body image, codependency and communication problems. Julie has worked with adults and young people from a range of backgrounds and has experience with workplace and childhood trauma, as well as emergency services contacts. She sometimes offers single-session work using the wheel of life to map priorities and create short-term focus.
Sessions are approached with warmth, humility and compassion. Julie aims to listen without judgement and to walk alongside people as they work towards clearer understanding and practical steps for change.

How Julie’s approaches work online
Julie blends trauma-focused work with client-centred ways of listening and uses cognitive behavioural techniques when helpful. Trauma-focused therapy aims to gently address painful memories and reactions and is useful for people impacted by past abuse or traumatic events. Client-centred work puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions and helps build trust and self-understanding. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and offer practical strategies to shift unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. Julie will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. This collaborative planning can change over time as different issues emerge or progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this style of work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or when a simpler check-in is preferred, and live chat or text messaging suit shorter reflections or ongoing support between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible for different schedules and day-to-day demands while keeping the focus on clear, practical steps and emotional processing.
