About Julie
Julie Tademy-Thorpe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, and issues like ADHD and mood disorders.
Julie focuses on practical, evidence-based work. Sessions look at patterns that keep someone stuck - for example people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or staying in chaotic relationships. She talks through how those patterns developed and what small, concrete changes might help day-to-day functioning.
Her background includes several years working in mental health settings using evidence-based approaches. That experience informs a straightforward style that balances skill-building with discussion. Julie aims to make therapy a place to try things out and notice what helps.
She pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, caregiver stress, and multicultural issues. Julie also addresses grief, intimacy-related problems, anger, and struggles with self-esteem. Her work includes support around addictions, postpartum mood concerns, and panic attacks.
Sessions are collaborative. Julie and the person she sees set goals together and adjust plans as progress is observed. People who want clear steps to manage anxiety, set firmer boundaries, or reduce mood symptoms may find this practical focus helpful.
How sessions work
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Julie draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building clear skills. One common approach is behavioral skill work, which teaches practical strategies for managing anxiety, mood swings, and panic symptoms through step-by-step practice. This approach helps people learn how to respond differently to stressful moments.Another frequently used approach focuses on attachment and relational patterns. It looks at how early relationships shape current habits like people-pleasing, boundary avoidance, or codependent behaviors, and supports learning new ways of relating and setting limits.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs, adjusting plans as progress is observed. Decisions about techniques are made together based on what is helpful.
Confirm the specific session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-in meetings when schedules are tight. They also let people keep therapy consistent during life changes while still focusing on practical tools and relational work.
