About Julie
Julie Vierling is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) and Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) practicing in Ohio with 28 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and addictions, and offers focused help for concerns such as panic, obsessive-compulsive patterns, mood disorders, and codependency.
Julie uses clear, practical strategies in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are part of how she helps people notice what matters and act on it.
In the room she talks through current problems, coping tools, and small steps that can reduce overwhelm. Sessions aim to make daily life feel more manageable, whether the struggle is with sleep, appetite, compulsive behaviors, or persistent worry. She also addresses issues related to parenting stress, career strain, and caregiving concerns.
Her work includes support for people dealing with domestic violence, substance and process addictions, postpartum and seasonal mood shifts, and trauma-related symptoms. Julie also supports clients managing long-term conditions like bipolar disorder and compassion fatigue.
She offers straightforward guidance and collaborative planning rather than quick fixes. People who keep putting others first, who struggle to set boundaries, or who feel stuck by another person's moods may find the practical focus helpful. To begin, readers are advised to follow the site's sign-up steps to match with her and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How ACT, CBT and DBT shape remote sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions in line with those values despite uncomfortable feelings. It is useful for worries, avoidance, and when people feel stuck repeating the same patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and compulsive behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for regulating strong emotions, tolerating distress, and managing intense interpersonal reactions; these skills help with panic, mood swings, and impulse-driven behaviors.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. That process begins with the first sessions and can change as needs shift over time.
Confirm current session options before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time, and let people work on real-life situations between meetings. Licensed professionals adapt CBT, ACT, and DBT exercises to remote formats so clients can practice skills between appointments and review what worked at home or at work.
