About Julie

LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) in New Jersey with 30 years of experience, Julie Krupinski helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, mood concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, trauma, and life changes. She uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing. Sessions are conducted in English and Julie does not work with international clients.

Julie frames her work around practical steps and steady supports. She treats problems like low self-esteem, compulsive or impulsive behavior, and substance concerns by talking through current patterns and trying small, testable changes. She also helps with family-of-origin topics, communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, and end-of-life or hospice-related concerns.

Her approach is rooted in client-centered practice and collaborative problem solving. Julie uses CBT-style techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and ACT and mindfulness to notice values and present-moment choices. Motivational Interviewing is used when substances or ambivalence about change are involved.

Over three decades she has worked across a range of settings and is familiar with 12-step programs. She aims to combine practical tools with connection and validation so people can develop coping strategies and make steady changes in daily life.

People who reach out usually want focused help for specific problems such as mood disorders, addiction, anger, codependency, or grief. The first meetings tend to clarify priorities and map small next steps the person can try between sessions.

Approaches used in remote sessions and how they work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take small actions that align with those values. It is useful when someone wants to reduce avoidance and build a meaningful daily routine.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and tests changes through simple behavioral experiments. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation skills.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration so the person’s own goals guide each session. This approach supports self-reflection and deciding which techniques fit best.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can change over time as the client tries different strategies and notes what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also mean flexible pacing for people managing grief, addiction recovery, mood issues, or caregiving responsibilities.
