Julie Storr, BACP, NCPS

Julie Storr enjoys city life and values the energy of human connection. She spent 25 years working in hospitality management, so she understands the strain of juggling full-time work with running a business and a home. That lived experience informs a practical, empathetic approach to counselling that focuses on making manageable changes to improve day-to-day life.

She is an integrative trained counsellor who draws on a range of therapeutic methods rather than following a single model. That means Julie adapts techniques from different approaches such as cognitive work and psychodynamic ideas to suit each person she sees, helping clients build a way of working that fits their needs and goals. Julie has 10 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, low self-esteem, depression and life transitions.

Julie holds BACP and NCPS credentials, indicating professional training and membership of recognised counselling bodies. She encourages an initial conversation to check mutual fit and to plan next steps, and she welcomes people seeking support from the United Kingdom and internationally. Prospective clients are invited to reach out for a first chat to see whether her style and experience feel like the right match.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Julie uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, non-directive space where the client's perspective guides the work; this approach is helpful for building self-understanding, improving self-esteem, and navigating relationship or life-role pressures. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to develop practical strategies for coping with anxiety, stress, mood shifts, and everyday challenges. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on identifying realistic goals and small, achievable steps toward them, which can be especially useful for people who want focused, short-term progress on specific issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Julie works collaboratively with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That exploration happens together, and plans are adapted as understanding and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and travel. These options increase accessibility for people in different locations and those who find it easier to engage from home or while abroad. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these formats to provide consistent, ongoing support tailored to each client's life and schedule.
