About Julie
Julie Thomas is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with 25 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, parenting, adoption-related concerns, and related problems. Sessions are presented in a straightforward, practical way designed for people who want to manage strong feelings and life changes better.
She trained at the University of Central Oklahoma, earning a Master of Education in Community Counseling. Her work history includes outpatient counseling, therapeutic foster care, school-based counseling, and adoptions. Those roles exposed her to a wide range of problems and gave her substantial applied experience.
Julie uses person-centered, strengths-based principles and treats the client as the expert in their own life. She blends that stance with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, solution-focused work, and hypnotherapy when appropriate. The result is a mix of talking, practical skills practice, and concrete tools to try between sessions.
People who come to her typically want to reduce reactivity, improve communication, or handle grief and transition more steadily. She also helps with sleep problems, attention concerns, and parenting skills rooted in real-life routines. Sessions aim to identify small, usable changes rather than vague promises.
Her style is collaborative and direct. She helps people notice patterns, test new responses, and build on existing strengths. The focus is on actions you can take outside the office to ease stress and better manage anger and frustration.
How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions and how they help
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and building from the strengths you already have. It helps when someone wants a respectful, active listener who treats them as the expert in their life.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anger, anxiety, sleep problems, and coping with change because it points to specific steps you can practice between sessions.
Mindfulness therapy adds simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment awareness. It can help slow down impulses and lower the intensity of strong emotions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and which methods fit best. That collaborative discussion guides whether the focus is skills practice, short-term solution work, or ongoing support.
Confirm the exact online session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people try new coping strategies without rearranging their whole day.
