About Julie

Julie Burr is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Missouri who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain, addiction, trauma, and other life challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on ten years of clinical experience and integrates practical tools with compassionate listening to support clients working through issues such as intimacy concerns, parenting difficulties, sleep and eating problems, attention challenges, and career-related stress. Julie emphasizes hope and resilience, inviting clients to move from feeling overwhelmed toward greater balance and meaning.

Her approach blends evidence-informed techniques with a warm, person-centered stance. Julie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, and she also incorporates elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies when they match a client’s needs.

She brings an appreciation for the role of faith, life experience, and practical self-care like movement and nutrition when appropriate, while collaborating with each person to tailor the plan for healing and growth.

Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches in Online Care

Julie brings Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into an online setting in ways that emphasize skill building and emotional regulation. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. DBT offers practical strategies for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress, making it helpful for those facing emotional volatility or relationship strain.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Julie works with each person to explore their goals, preferences, and life context and then tailors techniques from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, or solution-focused work as needed. She aims to match methods to what will be most practical and meaningful for the client’s situation rather than applying any single model rigidly.

Online sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy or geographically dispersed clients. These formats allow for consistent access to therapeutic tools, skills practice, and supportive coaching while accommodating different schedules and communication preferences.
