About Julia
Julia Wilkinson greets people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or exhausted. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions and depression. She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue and major life changes.
Julia speaks in plain terms and focuses on practical steps people can use straight away. Julia thinks people already carry important knowledge about their lives. She offers a calm space to talk through problems and to notice what matters most.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to build realistic coping skills and clearer choices rather than quick fixes. Her background includes seven years of professional practice in the United Kingdom and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Julia draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs, including existential ideas about meaning and choice alongside practical techniques for mood and behaviour. In sessions she listens for patterns in relationships, stress responses and habits. She will gently challenge unhelpful thinking and suggest small experiments to test new ways of responding.
Conversations focus on goals you set together and on steps that fit your everyday life. People often come for help with grief, trauma, sleep, parenting strain, attention differences and problems with self-esteem or intimacy. Julia adapts her approach to the issue at hand and the pace a person prefers, keeping sessions straightforward and goal-aware.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and what matters to you. It helps when life feels uncertain or when someone wants to make clearer decisions about values and direction. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, teaches practical skills to accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that match personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression and ongoing stress. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people notice and shift unhelpful interaction habits.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your needs and goals and try gentle experiments or techniques together to see what fits. That collaborative process helps decide whether existential reflection, ACT skills or attachment-focused work should take priority.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, so people can choose what fits their day. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, and messaging can suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible for work, family routines or different time zones, while still focusing on skills, insight and practical next steps.
