About Julie
Julie Shore is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She draws on four years of professional experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, grief and problems with self-esteem. She aims to offer a warm, non-judgemental space where clients can work through difficult feelings and start to make practical changes.
Julie uses an integrative approach that adapts to each person's needs. That means she may bring in ideas from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Attachment-based work or existential thinking depending on what helps. Sessions focus on clear goals, building coping skills and understanding how past experiences affect present patterns.
Her background includes a Certificate in Counselling and a Professional Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and also holds NCPS. Ongoing study has included topics such as suicide and self-harm awareness, psychopharmacology and eating disorders awareness.
Julie has worked in a range of settings, including a local mental health charity and a cancer hospice, where she supported people through bereavement and other losses. More recently she ran a private practice from 2023 and previously helped clients with crisis and ongoing emotional issues in charity roles.
Her lived experience of recovery from addiction and depression informs her way of working. She aims to help people find small, steady steps forward and to build confidence in managing life changes and relationships.
Therapeutic approaches for online counselling
Julie commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values, which can help with anxiety, stress and feeling stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in earlier relationships and how those patterns affect current connections and emotions, which is useful for relationship difficulties and codependency concerns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Julie will work with each person to decide which methods best match their goals and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as therapy progresses to keep it practical and relevant.
If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote sessions support consistent attendance and let them use therapeutic skills in real-life settings between appointments.
