About Julie

NCPS. Six years' experience. Julie Durmush is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, LGBT issues, low self-esteem and depression. She uses person-centred principles alongside other approaches to help people talk through what is troubling them and find clearer ways forward.

Julie describes her core approach as person-centred and says she works integratively to suit each person. That means sessions focus on listening without judgement and exploring what matters to the client. She aims to build a trusting therapeutic relationship and to understand the client’s experience so they feel heard.

Her practice includes work with adults and young people from a range of backgrounds, and she has experience with emergency services staff. She lists clinical experience in depression, anxiety, abuse, loss and grief, obsessive-compulsive disorder, personality disorders, PTSD, low confidence, relationship issues, workplace trauma and childhood trauma.

Julie also mentions use of Rewind Therapy and occasional single sessions using the wheel of life tool to map satisfaction across life areas. These options sit alongside her core person-centred way of working and other approaches such as cognitive behavioural and mindfulness methods.

She is registered with The National Counselling Society, abbreviated as NCPS. To begin, readers should follow the site process to view online counselling options, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling

Julie works from a person-centred base and draws on cognitive behavioural therapy and trauma-focused ideas to support people in online sessions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's perspective so they feel heard and can consider change at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps identify patterns of thought and behaviour and uses practical exercises to test and shift unhelpful habits.

Trauma-Focused Therapy offers techniques aimed at processing distressing events and reducing their ongoing effect on mood and daily life. The therapist will explain these methods and discuss whether they suit the particular problem, for example with symptoms after abuse, loss or workplace trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the early work. Julie will work collaboratively with each person to choose interventions that fit their goals and preferences. That means discussing what feels manageable, checking progress, and adjusting methods over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around everyday life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins or offering alternatives to video when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often find that remote sessions can maintain continuity of care and make regular meetings simpler to arrange.
