About Julie
Julie Duncan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and life changes. Parents and adults with ADHD-related concerns will find practical strategies and steady support in sessions.
Julie creates a straightforward space where clients can talk about what feels hard. She aims for clear goals and manageable steps rather than long lists of theory.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on daily habits, coping skills, and ways to improve communication and self-care. Her work covers a wide range of worries including trauma and abuse, addiction, intimacy issues, body image, and caregiver stress. She also supports people dealing with bipolar disorder, co-occurring conditions, and the emotional impact of chronic illness or cancer.
Julie makes room for questions about faith and spiritual concerns when those come up. Sessions can address parenting stress, blended family tensions, abandonment wounds, and attachment concerns with practical tools for managing emotions and boundaries. She offers strategies for sleep, eating issues, anger, and compassion fatigue to restore better daily functioning.
Julie believes starting therapy takes courage and treats each step as progress. She works collaboratively to set goals and track changes over time. The aim is improved coping, clearer communication, and a stronger sense of agency in everyday life.
Therapeutic approaches and online access
Julie uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change and clearer daily functioning. One approach emphasizes developing coping skills and routines to reduce anxiety and improve sleep and focus; it teaches step-by-step habits and short exercises people can use between sessions. Another approach concentrates on communication and relationship skills, helping clients set boundaries, manage conflict, and rebuild trust in close connections.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients work together with the therapist to pick strategies that feel doable and relevant to their life circumstances.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues and more in-depth conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and caregiving schedules while keeping care consistent over time.
