About Julie
Julie Fels is an Ohio licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 14 years of counseling experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and challenges like coping with life changes and parenting concerns. She aims to create a respectful and compassionate space for people to talk through what matters to them.
Julie adapts conversations and plans to each person's situation instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Background and approach
She emphasizes practical steps people can try between sessions to build momentum and reduce overwhelm. Her work also addresses anger, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar mood patterns, and mood-related impulsivity. She has supported people dealing with caregiver stress, first responder issues, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and women’s issues.
Julie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work and focuses on what will help a person feel steadier and more able to cope day to day. Sessions are conducted in English. Julie’s style is direct but warm.
She encourages honest conversation and helps people set realistic goals they can act on. Many people come seeking better emotional balance, clearer decision making, or relief from persistent negative thoughts. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions based on therapist availability.
Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and sessions are offered via phone, video calls, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Julie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood and anxiety concerns. One commonly used approach focuses on helping people recognize and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; it helps with anxiety, depression, low motivation, and obsessive thoughts by teaching practical skills to alter daily routines and reactions.Another approach emphasizes emotion regulation and coping skills for intense feelings such as anger, grief, or mood swings. This work teaches grounding exercises, pacing strategies, and simple routines to reduce impulsivity and improve day-to-day stability.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to identify what matters most and adjusts methods to match a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. Clients and the therapist check progress together and change direction when something isn’t helpful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more nuance is useful. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing problem solving between sessions, or a way to track progress in writing. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, and daily life.
