Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Julia Spain uses evidence-informed approaches tailored to each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving; it is commonly used for anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical skills like emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to help people manage intense emotions and improve relationships. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used to process distressing memories and reduce their ongoing emotional impact, often supporting recovery from difficult life events.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Julia collaborates with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then recommends or adapts methods based on what fits best for the individual. This collaborative planning helps ensure therapy remains focused and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions are delivered - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into a busy life or when travel is difficult. Working with licensed professionals through these modalities can make consistent support more accessible while preserving the same goal-oriented work that occurs in traditional therapy.
