About Julie

Julie Kuhn is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, relationship issues, grief, trauma and compassion fatigue. She also supports people facing cancer, chronic illness and disability and people who recognise patterns of codependency in their relationships.

Julie draws on straightforward talking therapy alongside practical techniques. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and on small steps that can be tried between meetings. She uses elements of cognitive behavioural work to spot unhelpful thinking, mindfulness to slow racing thoughts and somatic ideas to notice how the body reacts to stress.

Her approach is client-centred and solution-focused. That means conversations are shaped around the person's priorities and clear, short-term goals. People often work on setting boundaries, improving communication, or managing overwhelming feelings in specific situations.

Julie is open about having lived with anxiety and depression herself, and she uses that experience to inform how she listens and plans sessions. She encourages practical skills alongside talking, such as breathing practices, activity changes and experiments that test new ways of responding.

Sessions aim to help people gain more choice in how they act and feel, and to rebuild a sense of personal agency. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and arrangements so they know what to expect.

How sessions work

How Julie uses CBT, mindfulness and somatic ideas online

Julie blends client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural work and mindfulness in sessions. CBT helps identify patterns of thinking that keep anxiety or low self-worth active and provides practical experiments and reframing to test new beliefs. Mindfulness work focuses on attention and noticing thoughts without judgment, which can reduce rumination and calm stress responses. Somatic ideas attend to bodily signals and breathing, offering ways to interrupt panic or chronic tension.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Julie collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts techniques as the work progresses. That shared decision-making helps keep sessions focused and manageable.

The original biography did not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can still use the core techniques above in remote sessions, and practical exercises such as breathing, behavioural experiments and mindfulness practices transfer well to an online setting.
