    About Julie

    Julie Krupinski is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New Jersey with 30 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and life changes. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental presence and encourages people to build on their strengths and resilience.

    Julie listens closely and treats each person as the expert on their own life. Sessions aim to be interactive and validating, with practical steps people can try between meetings. She uses everyday language and clear goals so progress feels measurable.

    Her work draws on approaches like Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral and Mindfulness techniques when helpful to address thoughts, behaviors, and emotional patterns.

    Julie has worked in a variety of settings and is familiar with 12-step programs, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and addiction-related issues. She helps people facing relationship strain, family of origin problems, communication and control issues, and challenges tied to guilt, shame, or forgiveness.

    People meet Julie to talk through coping strategies, manage mood disorders and bipolar symptoms, and reduce impulsivity or compassion fatigue. Her goal is to help people find clearer direction, greater self-love, and tools that fit day-to-day life.

  2. How Julie’s approaches translate to online work

    Julie often uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change, encouraging small steps and clearer goals. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to notice difficult thoughts and focus on values-driven actions that matter most. Client-Centered Therapy keeps sessions grounded in empathy and partnership, with the person’s experience guiding the pace and priorities.

    Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Julie will collaborate to identify which methods feel most useful based on a person’s goals, life demands, and what they prefer. She adapts techniques so they fit each person’s day-to-day routines and challenges.

    Confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some people find phone or video sessions help maintain momentum between in-person commitments and let them practice coping strategies in real-life contexts.
