About Julia
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 12 years' experience, Julia Yates specialises in stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, relationship difficulties, grief and depression. Julia describes her work as collaborative and straightforward. She aims to help people name what is worrying them and find practical ways to cope.
Julia focuses on short, clear conversations that help a person feel understood and think differently about problems. She listens for patterns that fuel anxiety and stress, and then suggests practical steps to reduce their impact. For relationship concerns she helps people clarify what they want and how to express it to others.
When grief or loss is the focus, Julia helps people sit with strong feelings and find manageable ways to move through daily life. She also supports people with LGBT-related issues, including questions around gender identity, sexuality and experiences of prejudice and discrimination. Work around body image and self-love is offered alongside these themes.
Julia draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions and keeps explanations plain and concrete. Sessions aim to be a place to talk things through and test small changes between meetings. She works in English and accepts international clients.
Practical arrangements use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Confirm current session formats before booking to ensure they meet personal needs.

How her approaches translate to online work
Julia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical change. One common approach involves identifying thinking and behaviour patterns that maintain anxiety and testing small behavioural experiments to reduce symptoms. This helps with panic, social anxiety and general stress by giving concrete steps to try between sessions.Another strand addresses grief and relationship stress by helping people name and sit with difficult emotions while planning manageable day-to-day adjustments. For LGBT-related concerns she works to understand the impact of identity and prejudice, and supports exploration of values and self-acceptance in straightforward terms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Julia treats the choice of methods as collaborative - she will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust plans based on a person’s needs and goals.
Confirm what session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. In general, remote work can make fitting therapy into busy lives easier - it can reduce travel, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, and let people join from a quieter location. Ask about the current session options when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements suit everyday routines.
