About Julian
Counsellor (BACP), 30 years' experience. Julian Hart helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship and family concerns. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and existential approaches to work through problems.
Julian begins by listening to what is happening now and what the person hopes to change. He focuses on practical steps the client can try between sessions and on clearer thinking around difficult feelings. Sessions aim to reduce unhelpful patterns while building day-to-day coping skills.
He draws on integrative training and longstanding practice to match methods to each issue. For anxiety and panic he uses CBT exercises to notice and test thoughts. For values and life direction he incorporates acceptance and existential themes that look at meaning and choices.
Julian also supports people dealing with trauma, chronic health problems, low self-esteem, anger and grief. He works with obsessive and compulsive problems, phobias and post-traumatic stress using focused behavioural and talking techniques.
Practical goals include symptom reduction, clearer decision making and better routines around sleep and work. Sessions aim to leave people with skills they can use afterwards. To start, visitors are asked to follow the site booking steps and complete a short matching questionnaire before arranging a first appointment.

How his therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking action that matters, while also learning to notice difficult thoughts without getting led by them. It can help with anxiety, depression and a sense of emptiness.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for panic, phobias, obsessive thinking and low mood.
Client-Centred Therapy offers a space to talk things through with an emphasis on the client's own perspective and pace. This approach supports self-reflection and steady progress on personal goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the work, and the therapist aims to make that a collaborative decision. He will discuss methods, adapt techniques and check what feels useful based on the client's needs and preferences.
Confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and mobility limits. They also offer options such as shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, which can help people manage practical constraints while keeping regular contact with a therapist.
