About Julie-Ann

Julie-Ann Huggins is a counsellor who combines coaching with talking therapies to help people make practical changes. She works online and aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where difficult thoughts and feelings can be shared. Her approach is warm and interactive and focuses on helping people find meaning, purpose and manageable next steps.

Julie-Ann draws on a mix of therapeutic tools rather than a single method. She tailors sessions to each person and uses techniques that suit the problem at hand.

Background and approach

This might mean looking at thoughts and behaviours, exploring how past attachments affect the present, or focusing on values and action. People come to her with a wide range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addiction, bipolar and depression, and challenges linked to parenting, work and life change.

She also supports people with ADHD, body image and chronic health concerns. Her style is practical and solution-minded while staying emotionally present. Sessions often involve talking through specific situations, trying out new ways of responding, and setting small, achievable goals.

Julie-Ann aims to help clients notice what works for them and build on those changes. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, has five years of practice experience and works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally via online sessions.

Ways of working Julie-Ann names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Julie-Ann uses different therapeutic approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and for when someone feels stuck and wants more meaning in life.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help people understand repeating relationship problems and improve how they connect with others.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and situations where practical problem-solving helps day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie-Ann will discuss options with the client and adapt methods to the person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that tests what helps and adjusts as needed.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging so people can choose what fits their routine. Video calls allow visual contact for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be quicker or use less bandwidth, and messaging suits shorter check-ins or ongoing support. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
