About Julie
ACA counsellor Julie Teao has six years of professional experience in Australia. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, self esteem and depression. Julie works in English and aims to help people take practical steps toward feeling better.
Julie helps people talk through overwhelming feelings and develop everyday skills to manage them. She often addresses mood shifts, panic symptoms and low motivation through straightforward conversation and goal-setting. Sessions look at how work, relationships and social pressures affect mood and behaviour.
Her approach is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and practical strategies. Julie listens to what is happening now, then helps people try small changes to reduce stress and manage anxiety. She also supports those dealing with past hurt or abuse by pacing conversations to match the person's comfort level.
Julie pays attention to problems that come up around caregiving, communication breakdowns and workplace strain. She can help people who feel isolated or who are wrestling with self-worth, forgiveness or life purpose. The work includes short-term coping tools and planning for longer-term change when needed.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Julie uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted, and sessions are conducted in English.

How Julie uses evidence-based approaches in online work
Julie describes her practice as based on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills. One approach commonly used in this kind of work is cognitive behavioural strategies. These involve noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small experiments to reduce anxiety and low mood. They suit concerns like panic attacks, social anxiety and depressive thinking.Another helpful approach emphasises pacing and grounding when trauma or abuse are involved. This method breaks difficult memories into manageable steps and teaches calming techniques to reduce overwhelm. It is aimed at improving day-to-day functioning and tolerance for distress.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Julie will work collaboratively to identify which techniques match a person's needs, goals and preferences. She checks in about progress and adjusts methods over time rather than sticking to a single plan.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a workday. Others prefer approaches that involve written exercises or homework they can do between meetings. Talk with Julie about what will fit your routine and the practical arrangements you need.
