Julia Harvey, BACP

Julia Harvey helps people who feel worn out, anxious, or off balance. She meets people where they are and offers calm, steady support while they work through stress, grief, low mood, and life changes.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has 20 years of professional experience. Julia creates an open, non-judgemental space so thoughts and feelings can be shared. She encourages small, practical steps that feel manageable day to day.

Julia blends counselling with coaching and a holistic viewpoint. She explores physical, emotional and practical aspects of a problem rather than focusing on just one part. Clients are invited to notice patterns, build simple routines, and try new coping ideas between sessions.

Her work often covers issues such as anxiety, low energy, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, self‑esteem and career questions. She also supports people facing long‑term health problems, caregiver stress and body image struggles. The aim is to help clients regain a sense of agency and steady their routines.

Julia prefers a collaborative approach. She invites people to be curious about their own experience and to test out changes at a pace that feels safe. Practical tools, mindful awareness and reflective conversation are used together to help people move forward.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client‑Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person as they are. The idea is to follow the client's concerns, reflect back what is heard, and help the person arrive at their own solutions. This approach suits issues like low mood, self‑esteem and relationship worries where being heard matters.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness skills to notice thoughts, sensations and emotions without getting swept up by them. These practices can help with anxiety, stress, sleep difficulties and fatigue by training gentler attention and short grounding strategies.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different tools and agree what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative process that adapts as needs and priorities change.

Confirm the available session formats before booking as they are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around daily commitments, reduce travel time and allow quicker follow‑ups between meetings. They can also support shorter check‑ins or guided exercises when those suit practical schedules. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to maintain continuity of care when life is busy.
