Virtual support grounded in a grief-informed perspective
Julie offers online care that draws on a grief-informed perspective to address transitions, loss, and ongoing stressors. That perspective focuses on recognizing and working with the emotional processes that accompany life changes, caregiving responsibilities, and health-related challenges such as infertility, cancer, and chronic illness. In online sessions she attends to both emotional processing and practical coping as people navigate difficult phases.
Her practice also focuses on areas like postpartum adjustment, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and the strain of caregiver roles. Those topics often call for a collaborative approach in which therapist and participant work together to identify priorities, develop self-compassion, and strengthen day-to-day coping. The online format supports ongoing dialogue and flexibility while maintaining that collaborative stance.
Remote sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing individuals to choose the mode of communication that best fits their needs and routines.
