About Julia
Julia Yates is a counsellor who draws on 12 years of practice to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief and relationship worries. Julia is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the BACP, and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk. They use straightforward language and a warm approach to make that first step easier.
Julia often helps people dealing with low mood and panic, and those navigating sexuality, gender questions or the impact of prejudice.
Background and approach
They also support concerns around body image, blended family dynamics and the uncertainties of young adulthood. Sessions focus on what matters right now and practical ways to cope. In sessions Julia listens actively and reflects what is said so people feel heard.
Discussions are paced to suit each person, with options to try different ways of working if something does not feel helpful. The aim is to build clearer thinking and small steps that reduce overwhelm. Julia offers online formats that fit busy lives, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging.
People can choose what feels most manageable for them and change formats if needed. New clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and booking a time that suits them. Julia values collaboration and makes space for each person to set the goals they want to work towards.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Julia draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical work. One common method uses shared conversation and reflective listening to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and practice new responses; this approach can help with anxiety, panic and low mood. Another method emphasises small, structured steps and coping strategies to reduce overwhelm and build confidence when dealing with stress or relationship strain.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Julia will talk about different ways of working and agree on what to try based on your needs, goals and preferences. It is normal to adjust methods as you go until a good fit is found.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let you use visual cues and a fuller conversation, phone sessions are useful when internet bandwidth is low or when being on camera feels difficult, and live chat or text messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study or busy schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress.
