About Julie
Julie Reibsane is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania. She focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, relationship and intimacy issues, and grief. Julie speaks English and brings a respectful, compassionate style to sessions.
Julie tailors conversations to each person’s situation. She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts, test new behaviors, and set realistic goals. Sessions are interactive and collaborative, with attention to how past trauma or abuse can affect daily life.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with military and veteran issues and with people who have experienced physical or emotional trauma. That experience informs how she helps people manage post-traumatic stress symptoms and rebuild routines that feel manageable. Julie also supports those dealing with bipolar symptoms and anger when these concerns affect relationships and parenting.
In the room she blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with solution-focused and trauma-focused approaches. She helps people break problems down into clear steps, practice new ways of communicating, and set short-term goals that feel achievable. Motivational interviewing is used when clients want help finding internal reasons to change.
Julie emphasizes flexible pacing. She and the client decide how quickly to move, what skills to practice between sessions, and how to measure progress. The aim is steady, practical improvement rather than overnight fixes.

Approaches for online parenting and trauma work
Julie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. CBT often involves short exercises and clear goals to practice between sessions.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients set achievable, immediate goals and notice small changes that build momentum. This approach is goal-oriented and useful for parenting challenges and communication problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Julie will help clients choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily demands. She adjusts pacing and tools based on what the person needs and how they respond.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, quick problem-solving, and on-the-go support. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing parenting and other responsibilities.
