About Julie
Julie Elliott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) and holds LCSW credentials. She brings 35 years of practice to people seeking help with life stressors. Based in Texas, she has worked internationally and draws on decades of clinical experience when people sit with her to talk through pain and change.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She listens first, then helps people map small, practical steps for relief. Sessions tend to center on improving relationships, managing anxiety and depression, and addressing trauma and addictive behaviors.
Julie uses several familiar therapy styles to match what a person needs. She blends attachment-focused work to look at core relationship patterns, client-centered methods to follow each person's priorities, and cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also brings techniques from dialectical behavior work and emotionally-focused therapy when those fit.
People come for many concerns, including grief, parenting strain, body image, caregiver stress, and coping with life changes. Adoption and foster care are listed among her additional focus areas. She also helps with communication problems, codependency, and intimacy-related issues.
Her training includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Houston. Julie aims to create a calm, practical space where people can sort feelings, try new ways of relating, and make steady progress toward clearer goals.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current reactions; online sessions can unpack those patterns and practice new ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's own goals and pacing; this approach keeps the conversation focused on what matters most to the individual and helps set clear priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and will adapt techniques over time when needs change. Sessions are meant to be a team effort to clarify problems and try manageable steps toward improvement.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering work during breaks or while traveling. It also lets people continue work with the same licensed professional across locations and time zones when that is appropriate.
