About Julie
Julie Borden is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 23 years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, grief, depression, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, and other life transitions.
Background and approach
She holds a master’s degree in Social Welfare and has worked with clients on a wide variety of issues including coping with change, addictions, intimacy and communication problems, and ADHD. Julie emphasizes both insight and practical action, helping clients gain perspective on long-standing patterns while also taking small, achievable steps toward change.
Her practice views therapy as a process of seeing one’s life with greater clarity. Julie helps clients identify unhelpful assumptions, notice relationship patterns, and experiment with new behaviors that build confidence and open possibilities.
She frames growth as incremental - celebrating small successes that often produce larger shifts over time. With a warm, thoughtful approach, she aims to help people live more intentionally and make deliberate choices that reflect their values and goals.
Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Access
Julie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that combine insight work with concrete behavioral changes. One common approach she uses involves helping clients explore and reframe longstanding beliefs and relationship patterns to gain clearer perspective and reduce reactive responses. This kind of work is useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. Another focus is behaviorally oriented change where small, attainable steps are planned and practiced to build confidence and generate real-world results; this method supports coping with life transitions, stress management, and habit-related issues such as addictions and ADHD-related challenges.
Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Julie partners with each client to identify goals, consider preferences, and try methods that fit the person’s needs, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds so the work remains practical and client-centered.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules and to access support from home. These formats provide flexibility in timing and communication style, allowing clients to engage in ways that feel most comfortable while working toward clearer perspective and steady change.
