About Julian

Julian Hart is a counsellor with three decades of experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and the strain of life changes. He works in a straightforward way. Sessions focus on what is troubling you now and on practical steps to feel steadier and more in control.

Julian draws on a mix of approaches so therapy is suited to each person. He uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and actions.

Background and approach

He also uses client-centred listening to help people feel heard and understood. Many clients come for help with stress, sleep problems, grief and trauma. He also supports people dealing with relationship pain, work pressure, anger and compassion fatigue.

Additional areas he pays attention to include chronic illness, shame and issues around abandonment. In sessions Julian aims to give clear tools to manage symptoms and reactions. He works at a steady pace and focuses on practical skills as well as making sense of feelings.

The goal is to give usable strategies you can use after therapy ends. Julian is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He practises in the United Kingdom and runs online sessions by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Sessions are organised to fit around each person’s life and preferences.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them. It teaches practical exercises and values-based goals to reduce avoidance and build a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and introduces specific techniques to ease anxiety, panic, phobias and low mood. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful listening and a non-judgemental relationship so people can find their own way forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about what they want to change and try methods that match those goals. Decisions about technique and pace are made together so the approach fits the person's needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls make it possible to read facial expressions and tone in real time. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or need lower bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflection and easier scheduling around work or family. Many people find these options help therapy fit into a busy life while still allowing focused therapeutic conversations.
