About Julie
Julie Lynn Stanton is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, addictions, and grief. Her approach is calm and practical, aimed at helping people regain a sense of competence and purpose.
She sees individuals and runs groups, working with people across a wide socioeconomic range. She listens for what matters most to each person, then helps set realistic steps to reduce distress and improve communication. Her work often addresses emotional flooding, low self-esteem, and difficulties with intimacy and boundaries.
Julie believes people carry inner resources that can be tapped when obstacles are cleared. She explains how skill gaps, stuck thinking, trouble self-soothing, and limited access to information can get in the way. Therapy focuses on building skills, finding meaning, and restoring functioning in daily life.
Her methods draw on acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior ideas, client-centered listening, and existential questions about meaning. She adapts techniques to the person’s needs rather than following a single script.
Clients who work with her can expect a partnership where goal-setting and problem-solving are shared. Julie frames therapy as a collaborative effort to identify what the client wants to change and practical steps to get there. She invites people to explore strengths and try new ways of coping.
Julie practices in North Carolina as an LCSW. She welcomes the chance to discuss concerns like caregiver stress, codependency, career strain, and challenges that come with aging or chronic illness.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and creating a respectful, accepting relationship. It helps people feel heard and clearer about what they want to change. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and choosing values-driven action despite them.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to see which methods fit the client’s goals, preferences, and current struggles. That partnership includes trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting plans as needed.
