• Our approach

  Julia uses a range of therapeutic approaches tailored to each client's needs, including CBT, interpersonal psychotherapy, solution-focused brief therapy, family therapy, art and play therapy, and mediation. With over 20 years of clinical experience, she works with children and adolescents in a warm, supportive manner across a variety of issues. Sessions draw on these evidence-based techniques to help young people and their families navigate challenges and build skills. Her approach recognises that different young people respond to different methods, so she flexibly combines approaches to suit each individual. The focus is on creating a respectful, collaborative relationship where young people feel heard and supported.
