Julie Schehr, LCSW

Julie Schehr is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New Jersey with 25 years of professional experience. She brings a warm, engaging manner to her work and has a long record of helping people navigate significant life transitions - from breakups and graduations to career changes and midlife shifts. With an extensive background on the medical side of care, she is also experienced in supporting individuals facing medical diagnoses and assisting their loved ones and caregivers in coping with those challenges.

Julie primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - commonly known as CBT - and emphasizes short-term, skills-based work that teaches practical strategies to manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, sleep difficulties, and self-esteem concerns. Her approach is goal-oriented; clients learn tools to address immediate problems and build resilience so they can move forward without ongoing therapy. She treats a wide range of concerns including aging and geriatric issues, cancer-related stress, fertility and hospice matters, isolation and loneliness, social anxiety, and career and relationship transitions.

Believing that no two stories are the same, Julie prioritizes listening to each person s unique experience and tailoring treatment to the goals they set. She frames the work as a collaborative process that honors the courage it takes to seek help, offering support and empowerment as clients pursue meaningful change.
