About Julie
Dr Julie Bradshaw MBE helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people coping with trauma, grief, eating concerns, anger and life changes. Her approach includes practical coaching for career and relationship questions as well as help with ADHD and bipolar-related challenges.
Julie uses clear, goal-focused work to get people moving towards better days. Julie draws on 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist, counsellor and life coach.
Background and approach
She believes people are not defined by their behaviours and that most have the inner resources to change. Early sessions focus on checking the fit between client and counsellor and setting realistic goals together. Her practice blends client-centred listening with structured techniques such as cognitive behavioural work and solution-focused coaching.
She also uses emotionally focused ideas and hypnotherapy when these suit the person’s needs. Sessions aim to strip away limiting beliefs and build practical tools to manage mood, habits and unhelpful patterns. Julie places strong emphasis on the working relationship.
She creates a calm space where people can speak without judgement and explore difficult memories or behaviours. That trust helps people address the root of problems rather than only the surface symptoms. Practical interventions may include timeline-style work and brief breakthrough coaching to shift emotions and motivation.
Clients are encouraged to notice changes quickly and to develop lasting skills so fewer follow-up sessions are needed. Julie offers sessions online for people in the United Kingdom and internationally.

How therapeutic approaches translate online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor reflects what you say and helps you find your own solutions, which can be helpful for building self-esteem and working through anxiety. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it suits problems like depression, anxiety and many types of habit change. Emotionally-Focused Therapy emphasises the role of emotions and attachment in how people relate to themselves and others. It can help when feelings feel overwhelming or when old patterns keep repeating. Finding the right approach is part of the work and the therapist will help you decide what fits best. That choice is made together, based on your goals, preferences and how you respond in early sessions. Online formats make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life. Video calls let you have a full conversation and see body language, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be useful for a focused check-in, while live chat or text messaging suit brief reflections or ongoing support between sessions. These options increase flexibility and mean people can access registered or accredited professionals from across the UK and internationally.| Session length | Typically 50 minutes |
