About Julie
Julie Fahlmann is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York who helps people cope with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, parenting strain, depression, relationship and family issues, grief, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. She names Motivational Interviewing among her approaches and uses practical strategies to support change. Julie writes simply and listens closely to what matters most to each person.
Julie earned a Master of Social Work and has three years in her current clinical role. She aims to build a trusting relationship first, then work toward clear goals chosen with the person she sees. Sessions focus on realistic steps and on strengthening what already works in daily life.
Her style blends client-centered care with cognitive-behavioral techniques and other problem-focused methods. That means time is spent understanding thoughts and habits, then trying small changes and different ways of coping. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and solution-focused strategies when those fit the goals.
Julie is comfortable addressing trauma and addiction by looking at safety, motivation, and practical supports. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns and helps people navigate complicated family dynamics without assuming a single solution.
People who choose Julie can expect straightforward conversations, collaborative planning, and short-term steps that fit their life. She invites prospective clients to read, ask questions, and judge fit for themselves before starting work together.

Therapeutic approaches useful for online work
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. It focuses on a person's own reasons for change and builds motivation one step at a time. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the person's perspective so they can set the pace and topics of sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean mixing strategies and adjusting over time as progress and challenges become clearer.
The original biography did not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow sessions to fit into a work break or busy day. It also makes it possible to practice new skills in real-life settings with support between sessions. Licensed professionals can guide pacing, set practical homework, and help people try small changes that matter at home and at work. -
