About Julie

Julie Mannarino is a Pennsylvania-licensed LCSW who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, career concerns, and ADHD-related challenges. With 12 years of clinical experience, she aims to create an open environment where clients can explore difficult emotions and practical problems without fear of judgment.

Background and approach

Her style emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person’s pace and priorities. Julie brings a mix of evidence-informed approaches to her work, including cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and acceptance-based strategies to support coping with life changes, mood disorders, and relationship strains.

She also integrates skills drawn from client-centered therapy and the Gottman Method when addressing intimacy issues, infidelity, or communication struggles. Julie frames therapy as a joint process focused on building clarity, practical tools, and increased self-awareness.

People seeking help for grief, parenting concerns, anger, compassion fatigue, or self-esteem issues may find Julie’s balanced focus on insight and skills-building useful. She offers sessions in English and practices in Pennsylvania as an LCSW, and she encourages prospective clients to take the first step when they are ready to explore meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and How They Work Online

Julie commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her online work. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with those values, which can help with stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. CBT concentrates on recognizing unhelpful thought patterns and practicing concrete skills to change behaviors and emotional responses, making it useful for depression, anxiety, and mood regulation.

She also incorporates client-centered and mindfulness-infused techniques to create a collaborative, empathetic space where clients guide the pace of work. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process; the therapist partners with each person to clarify goals, try different strategies, and adapt methods based on what proves most helpful for their needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to maximize flexibility. These options allow clients to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue care during life transitions, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working with licensed professionals.
