Julie Butler , LMHC

Julie Butler is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 10 years of experience in the behavioral health field, providing care across individual, couples, family, child and group therapy settings. She brings a holistic perspective to clinical work, recognizing that emotional and mental wellness is shaped by many interconnected dimensions of life.

Julie often draws on Adlerian ideas to explore how early beliefs and life patterns formed, then pairs that understanding with practical techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy to help clients build healthier thoughts and behaviors. Her client-centered stance creates space for each person to be heard and to set goals that matter to them.

The intent of her work is to help people find healing from within so they can move forward feeling more satisfied, hopeful and empowered. She combines thoughtful assessment with collaborative planning so that interventions fit the individual or family, whether addressing relationship concerns, stress and anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction, or other life transitions.

Julie emphasizes respectful, strengths-based care and works collaboratively with clients to identify steps toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Julie Butler integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused therapy into her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and active listening so clients can explore their own goals and pace of change; it is helpful for building self-understanding and strengthening relationships. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems; it is well suited to clients who want structured tools and measurable progress. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and on recognizing strengths and resources that lead to improvement; it can be effective for addressing specific life changes and immediate concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Julie collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts strategies over time so the work remains relevant and client-led.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and shorter interactions can take place via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change, while still allowing licensed professionals and therapists to engage in meaningful, goal-focused work with clients.
