About Julie
Julie Durmush is a counsellor who centres sessions on the person in front of her. She describes a warm, compassionate approach and aims to listen without judgement so people feel heard. Julie holds NCPS and works from values of kindness and humility in her practice.
She primarily uses client-centred work while drawing on other approaches to meet individual needs. That means conversations are guided by the person’s goals, not a strict technique.
Background and approach
Julie also uses cognitive behavioural ideas and emotionally focused methods where these match the issue. Julie has six years of experience supporting adults through anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties. She also works with trauma and abuse, grief, body image and issues around gender identity.
Additional areas she addresses include attachment and abandonment, codependency, dissociation and mood disorders. Sessions can include practical exercises, reflective conversation and mindfulness practice when helpful. Julie can offer single-session focused work such as a wheel-of-life review as well as longer-term support for deeper issues.
She aims to help people find clarity and make changes that matter to them. Julie is registered with the National Counselling Society, works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. She welcomes straightforward conversations about needs and goals to shape a clear plan together.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and uses practical exercises to break unhelpful patterns. In online work CBT often includes homework tasks, short worksheets and structured check-ins to track progress.
Trauma-Focused Therapy aims to help people process and reduce the impact of traumatic experiences. Delivered remotely it can combine paced conversation, grounding techniques and targeted exercises tailored to each person’s readiness.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Julie will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and jointly decide whether client-centred work, CBT, trauma-focused techniques or a mix fits best. This collaborative planning makes it easier to adjust the plan as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family commitments and daily life.
