Julie McAulay helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She supports those struggling with grief, low self esteem and depression. She also helps people facing panic attacks, seasonal low moods and social anxiety.

Julie works in a straightforward, calm way. She listens and helps people find practical steps that fit their life. She believes people know their own story and brings out strengths already there to tackle hard moments.

Background and approach

With three years of professional experience and NCPS on her record, Julie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. She focuses on what a person needs now and on small changes that build confidence over time. Sessions aim to be clear and practical.

Conversations explore feelings, identify unhelpful thinking or behaviours, and test simple strategies between sessions. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Julie supports people through life adjustments such as bereavement, changing circumstances, or shifts in mood tied to the seasons.

She also addresses guilt and shame and helps people regain motivation and confidence in day-to-day life.

Approaches and online therapy that fit your life

Julie works with well-established, evidence-based techniques that target symptoms and daily functioning. One common approach focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce anxiety and low mood; this helps people notice triggers and try small changes that ease distress. Another approach emphasises practical coping skills for immediate relief, such as breathing and grounding strategies for panic attacks and step-by-step plans to manage seasonal low moods.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Julie collaborates with each person to choose approaches that match their goals and preferences, then adapts techniques over time based on what helps most. This means sessions are tailored and practical rather than one-size-fits-all.

Online therapy provides flexibility so people can fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or ongoing support between calls. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care across different days and circumstances.
