About Juli

Juli Johnson is an LPC based in Tennessee who brings nine years of clinical experience to work with people facing family conflict, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, addiction, and other life stressors.

Background and approach

She emphasizes that each person knows their own story and aims to build on clients' strengths to address challenges such as relationship struggles, parenting concerns, grief, low self-esteem, and impulsivity. Her style blends practical, evidence-informed techniques with a respectful, person-centered stance.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness-based strategies to help clients explore patterns, develop coping skills, and practice new ways of responding to difficult thoughts and emotions. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused tools are also part of her approach when clients are working toward behavior change or specific goals.

Juli encourages clients to view the decision to begin therapy as an important step toward greater well-being, and she offers collaborative support throughout the process. Her work also addresses related issues such as attachment and abandonment, communication problems, substance concerns, and blended family dynamics.

Approach and Options for Online Work



Juli frequently draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, focusing on empathic listening and building a collaborative relationship so clients feel heard and supported while exploring their goals. Mindfulness Therapy is another tool she integrates to help people cultivate present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity in stressful situations.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the balance of skills training, reflective work, and motivation-focused techniques as therapy progresses. Clients participate in shaping the plan so it fits their life circumstances and priorities.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to receive ongoing support without rearranging major parts of daily life, and they allow for continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt therapeutic tools to these formats so clients can practice strategies between sessions and work toward meaningful changes.
