About Julie

Julie Ann Hexum is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Utah who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people facing emotional and practical challenges. She centers care on collaborative, compassionate work that helps clients strengthen coping skills and build resilience when life feels overwhelming.

Background and approach

Julie integrates practical strategies with empathic support to address concerns like depression, anxiety, grief, and stress-related issues, including compassion fatigue and burnout. Her practice also addresses a broad range of intertwined difficulties such as relationship and intimacy concerns, career stress, addictions, bipolar mood challenges, and ADHD.

Julie brings four years of clinical experience to creating individualized plans that attend to each person’s values and goals. She places emphasis on skill-building for sleep, eating, anger, and self-esteem concerns while also addressing complex situations such as trauma, attachment wounds, chronic illness, and caregiving strain.

Clients can expect a steady, goal-oriented partnership that balances empathic listening with practical tools. Julie works to tailor interventions so they fit day-to-day life and evolving needs, supporting progress through clear, attainable steps and ongoing collaboration.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Convenience

Julie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that combine practical skill-building with reflective work. Cognitive-behavioral strategies focus on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems; these techniques often include behavioral experiments, activity scheduling, and coping skills training. Trauma-informed care attends to the impact of past experiences, emphasizing safety, pacing, and stabilization while helping people process and integrate difficult memories in ways that reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is collaborative rather than predetermined. Julie works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors interventions so the chosen methods fit their life and priorities. She adjusts pacing and techniques over time based on progress and client feedback to ensure therapy remains relevant and practical.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access support from home or work. These formats provide flexibility for appointments, allow for ongoing skill reinforcement between sessions, and help maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not convenient.
