About Julie

Julie Burr is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Missouri with ten years of practice. She supports adults coping with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, addictions, anger, ADHD, and related struggles. Julie frames work around practical skills and steady problem-solving rather than quick fixes.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, client-centered methods, and solution-focused tasks. Sessions often include learning specific skills for managing strong feelings, reworking unhelpful thoughts, and practicing small behavioral changes that add up over time.

Julie draws on personal and professional experience with loss, chronic illness, and relationship transitions. That background shapes a plainspoken approach: she talks through what’s happening now, points out patterns, and offers tools to try between meetings. The tone stays direct and practical rather than theoretical.

Her interests outside therapy - travel, nutrition, movement, parenting challenges, caregiving, and social justice - inform how she thinks about stress and coping. She also mentions faith as a resource some people find useful and is willing to help clients sort which aspects of faith support their wellbeing.

Clients can expect sessions focused on skills practice, clear feedback, and short-term goal setting when that fits. Julie emphasizes collaboration: clients and she decide together which techniques to use and when to adjust the plan.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Julie commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into practical online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress by offering step-by-step exercises and homework. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills; it helps people manage strong feelings and improve difficult interactions.

She also brings mindfulness practice into conversations to help clients notice sensations and shift reactivity. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will review goals and preferences and collaborate with the client to decide which tools to try first and when to adjust the plan.

Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and let people practice skills in their everyday contexts. Licensed professionals commonly use these practical benefits to help clients apply coping strategies between meetings without promising a specific format.
