About Julia
Julia Garnham is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, depression and life changes. Julia also lists a wide range of related concerns she supports, including attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress and relationship breakdown.
Julia uses a pluralistic approach that draws on several therapies rather than one fixed method. That means sessions can include talking therapies alongside techniques such as hypnotherapy, mindfulness exercises, or guided writing and art if these feel useful. Sessions aim to be practical and paced to what each person needs, with time spent on understanding patterns and learning coping strategies.
She often uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships influence current responses and relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) tools are applied to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Mindfulness practices are used to develop present-moment awareness and reduce anxious reactivity.
In work with trauma and post-traumatic stress she combines therapeutic listening with grounding and relaxation techniques drawn from hypnotherapy and mindfulness, when appropriate for the client. For issues such as avoidance, dissociation or control problems, sessions can explore safety, pacing and small behaviour changes to build confidence.
Julia accepts people who live outside the UK and runs sessions in English. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session to agree goals and next steps.
Using attachment, CBT and mindfulness online
Julia often blends attachment-based work, cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness in online sessions. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current responses and can help with anxiety around closeness and trust. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioural steps to reduce avoidance and anxious thinking. Mindfulness teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment noticing. Choosing which approach to use is part of the collaborative work. The therapist will help the client decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques across sessions and adjusting the focus as progress is made. The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, avoid travel time and continue work from another location. Some approaches translate well to shorter check-ins or camera-off conversations, while mindfulness exercises and CBT worksheets are easy to use remotely. Julia accepts international clients and will discuss practical arrangements and session rhythm during the initial match and first appointment.Areas of expertise
