About Julie

Dr. Julie McCune brings 25 years of clinical experience to her work as an LPCC with supervisory endorsement in Ohio.

Background and approach

She holds both a master's degree in Counseling and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, and she integrates that training into practical care for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, grief, and a wide range of life changes.

Her background includes both independent practice and community mental health settings, giving her familiarity with varied needs and treatment contexts. Her style is warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental, meeting clients where they are and focusing on strengths and practical coping tools.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused strategies to tailor treatment to individual goals. Areas of emphasis include managing anger and addiction, improving self-esteem, parenting and co-parenting concerns, intimacy and relationship issues, and support for grief, career challenges, and major life transitions.

Dr. McCune offers flexible contact options and works with clients across locations, including international clients.

She aims to empower people to build healthier routines and better coping skills while collaborating on a treatment plan that fits each person's circumstances and priorities.

Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches in Online Care

Dr. McCune frequently draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this approach is practical for managing anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete skills. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to encourage values-driven action and greater psychological flexibility when people face painful thoughts or life transitions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are employed as well to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills for those struggling with intense emotions or recurrent conflicts.

Choosing the right approach is part of a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then adapts methods from these approaches to create a plan that feels workable and relevant. The emphasis is on practical tools and skills that fit the client’s life circumstances.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and easier access to care. These options make it possible to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue work while traveling, or maintain contact across distances, with the aim of supporting consistent progress and meeting clients where they are.
