    About Julie

    Julie Duncan is a Minnesota psychologist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and grief. She also supports people coping with trauma, parenting strain, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, and life changes. Julie uses straightforward language and a warm style to make sessions feel approachable for someone new to therapy.

    She brings three years of experience in community mental health. Julie combines client-centered listening with practical tools drawn from cognitive behavioral methods. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and build motivation.

    Sessions focus on what matters most to each person. Julie listens for strengths and small steps that fit into daily life. She aims to help people manage symptoms, improve communication, and make choices that match their goals.

    Her background includes work with people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse, and with individuals on the autism spectrum. She has also worked with parents navigating the challenges of caring for children with autism spectrum disorder.

    Julie holds the credential MN Psychologist LP4663 and practices in Minnesota. She speaks English and works in a collaborative, respectful way. To get started, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.

  2. Approaches that guide online sessions

    Julie uses a mix of approaches to tailor work to each person's needs. Motivational Interviewing focuses on drawing out a person’s own reasons to change and building motivation in small, manageable steps. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes attentive listening and respect, giving people space to set their own pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers concrete tools to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or panic.

    Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. Sessions often combine listening, skill teaching, and short practical exercises to test new ways of coping between meetings.

    If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use audio-only options if they prefer less bandwidth or a quicker, phone-style check-in. Licensed professionals aim to adapt sessions so therapy fits into everyday life rather than the other way around.
