Julie Golding

Julie Golding is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those coping with trauma, abuse and major life changes. Julie describes her practice as a calm space where people can talk honestly and feel heard without judgement.

She has three years of professional experience and works in English. Julie aims to empower people to take small, practical steps towards a more satisfying life. Her approach emphasises gentle encouragement and clear goals rather than quick fixes.

In sessions she listens for patterns shaped by early relationships and current pressures. Julie uses ideas from attachment-focused work to help people understand how past bonds affect present feelings. She also draws on mindfulness to help people notice thoughts and sensations without getting overwhelmed.

Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and unsure how to start making changes. Solution-focused techniques are used to identify immediate steps that can make daily life easier. Psychodynamic ideas are brought in to explore deeper themes when needed.

Julie supports people dealing with eating and food-related issues alongside other concerns such as abandonment, codependency, relationship pain and financial stress. She works collaboratively to build a plan that fits each person’s situation and goals.

How Julie’s approaches work online

Julie uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This helps when past hurts affect trust, closeness or how someone copes under stress. Mindfulness techniques teach simple ways to notice thoughts, emotions and bodily sensations so they feel less overwhelming; these can be practised between sessions.

Motivational interviewing is useful when someone feels stuck and uncertain about change. It focuses on the person's own reasons and strengths, helping them find manageable next steps. Julie blends these approaches to match what each person needs rather than using one fixed method.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will discuss goals and preferences and try different ideas to see what helps most. This is a collaborative process where the person and therapist agree on small, realistic actions.
