About Julie

Julie Toppins is a licensed social worker practicing in Ohio with eight years of professional experience supporting people through addictions, LGBT-related concerns, trauma and abuse, and struggles with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. As an LISW - Licensed Independent Social Worker - she brings advanced social work training and a collaborative focus that highlights each person's existing strengths and knowledge about their own life.

She works from the premise that individuals are the experts of their own stories and that those strengths are central to overcoming challenges. Julie frames therapy as a partnership, offering guidance and practical support while clients identify goals and take steps toward greater well-being. She recognizes that seeking change takes courage and aims to provide steady encouragement during that process.

In sessions she helps people build coping skills, enhance self-confidence, and address the effects of trauma and addictive behaviors. Prospective clients in Ohio can expect a professional who listens carefully, honors personal experience, and supports movement toward a more fulfilling and happier life.

Evidence-Based Care and Remote Access

Julie Toppins uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the issues clients bring to therapy. One approach focuses on practical skills for managing addictive behaviors and improving motivation - teaching strategies for coping, relapse prevention, and rebuilding routines to support recovery. Another approach addresses trauma and abuse by helping clients process painful experiences and develop safety-focused tools for emotional regulation and grounding. A third emphasis is on strengths-based and affirming work for LGBT clients and those building self-esteem - highlighting personal resources and supporting identity development.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Julie partners with each person to identify goals, test techniques, and adjust plans based on what is helpful. She prioritizes client preferences and works with clients to determine the best fit for their needs and progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to attend sessions from varied locations and to maintain continuity of care around work, family, or other commitments. For many people, remote sessions provide a convenient way to engage consistently with a licensed professional and continue making steady progress toward personal goals.
