About Julie
Julie Christman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with a decade of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, and anger. Julie aims to meet people where they are and build practical skills for everyday life.
She uses plain talk and a steady presence in sessions. Julie listens for what matters most, then works with each person to set realistic goals.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize clearer communication, stronger coping skills, and better emotional awareness. Julie draws on several evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person. She may use cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking patterns or acceptance and commitment strategies to clarify values and action.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing can be part of work for trauma and distress when appropriate. People come for help with many issues including addiction struggles, career stress, intimacy concerns, family-of-origin wounds, and body image or self-esteem problems. She also addresses attachment and abandonment themes and the long-term effects of shame or guilt.
Julie aims to make therapy manageable. She helps people build small, concrete habits that add up over time. The focus is on progress - clear steps, not vague promises.

How Julie’s Approaches Shape Online Care
Julie often combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on helping people identify what matters most and take values-based action, which can reduce avoidance and increase motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, anger, and mood.She may also use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma-related work when appropriate. EMDR uses guided attention to help reduce the intensity of distressing memories and can be helpful for people coping with past trauma and abuse. Together these approaches give options for both short-term symptom work and deeper processing over time.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Julie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and they will decide together which methods to try and when to adjust the plan. This teamwork helps shape a treatment path that fits real life needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people have sessions much like in-person meetings. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief check-ins, support between sessions, or a way to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practice new skills consistently.
