Julie Stevens, BACP

Julie Stevens is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people with sexual dysfunction alongside a wide range of emotional and life concerns. She works with issues such as stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship problems and intimacy-related difficulties. Julie uses a warm, non-judgemental manner so people can speak openly about what matters to them.

Her approach centres on Client-Centred Therapy, which means conversations follow the person’s lead and focus on their experience. Julie aims to create an open space where feelings and thoughts can be shared and understood. She listens closely and reflects what she hears to help people make clearer choices.

Julie brings four years of professional counselling experience together with a background as a registered mental health nurse working in the mental health and wellbeing field for over 20 years. That combination informs a practical, grounded way of working that pays attention to everyday challenges as well as deeper emotional patterns.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Julie supports people who want to build confidence, manage difficult emotions, improve relationships and address sexual and intimacy-related concerns. She encourages small, steady steps and practical strategies alongside open conversation.

People who choose to work with Julie usually start by talking about immediate concerns and then set simple, achievable goals. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people feel clearer and more able to cope.

Client-centred work and online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and supports people to find their own answers. This approach can help with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues by making space to explore feelings and needs.

Julie’s background as a mental health nurse also contributes a practical, grounded perspective in sessions. That experience can help when talking through coping strategies for low mood, anger or chronic stress and when addressing concerns around sexual function and intimacy.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify what feels most helpful, adapting pace and focus to match needs, goals and preferences. Clients are invited to give feedback and shape the way sessions proceed.

Session formats are not listed on the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or avoiding the need to be on camera when that helps concentration. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can support the same kinds of emotional work remotely as they do in person, while tailoring practical arrangements to each person’s routine.
