Julie ChristmanLPC

Julie Christman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with ten years of clinical experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and major life changes. Julie focuses on practical steps and steady support to help someone get through a difficult time.

She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what matters to them. Sessions aim to build clearer self-understanding and better ways to handle stress and relationship strain. Julie helps people improve communication, manage workplace pressure, and address intimacy-related concerns.

Her work often includes addressing attachment issues, abandonment concerns, and family of origin problems. She also supports those dealing with grief, substance-related struggles, body image, and caregiver stress. Julie pays attention to how past hurts influence present choices and relationships.

Julie uses a mix of practical therapies to match each person’s needs. She draws on approaches that focus on values, present-moment coping, and changing unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses trauma-focused methods when past events continue to disrupt daily life.

The goal in sessions is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Julie helps people set realistic steps, notice small gains, and practice new skills between meetings. This work is collaborative and paced to each person’s comfort and goals.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, committed steps toward those values. It focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck and acting in ways that match chosen priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches strategies to change unhelpful thinking patterns and coping habits. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps reduce the emotional hold of past upsetting memories through structured processing.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and comfort level. She blends techniques and checks in as progress is made, adjusting the plan when needed.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the profile. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats may also be more comfortable for people who prefer not to be on camera or who need a lower-bandwidth option. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to work well in remote settings, helping clients practice skills and process experiences from wherever they join sessions.
