Julie Dodson is an individual, couple, and family counselor licensed to practice in Indiana. She earned an undergraduate degree in Marriage and Family Relations, completed a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology, and pursued doctoral work in Counseling Psychology. She has been a professional counselor for 35 years.
Over the course of her career Julie has assisted clients with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting challenges, self-esteem and motivation difficulties, and domestic violence, among other life issues.
Her primary counseling style is relational and respectful, grounded in a belief that people deserve kindness, sensitivity, and understanding. Julie draws on cognitive-behavioral, rational-emotive, and psychoeducational approaches and adapts techniques to fit each person she works with.
Julie identifies as a Christian and is comfortable providing biblically-based counseling when a client requests it; she tailors any faith-based work to the client’s own theology. She has also worked with many clients of other faiths throughout her practice.
She is committed to helping people experience growth and improved health in themselves and in their relationships. Acknowledging that reaching out for help can feel intimidating, Julie welcomes the opportunity to meet and support clients in whatever ways she is able.
Many people ask whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most people.
One major benefit is flexibility - individuals can connect in the way that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to stay consistent with care.
Therapists who provide online care are licensed professionals, and clients can change therapists if they decide they need a different fit. Online options can broaden access to support while preserving many of the same therapeutic methods used in face-to-face work.
