About Julia
Julia Donnini is a licensed clinical social worker who aims to help people find practical tools and steady support. She approaches sessions with warmth and respect, and she focuses on helping clients make real changes in daily life and relationships. Her work often begins by listening carefully to what is most pressing.
She helps set clear goals in the first few sessions so the work has direction. Those goals can change as needs shift, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Background and approach
Julia draws on several straightforward therapy methods. She uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and experiment with new behaviors. She uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotional regulation and managing strong reactions.
Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about making changes. She has experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and parenting stress. Julia also works with people facing relationship strain, compassion fatigue, bipolar mood challenges, and life transitions.
Julia holds an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker - in Texas and has three years of clinical experience. Sessions are offered in English and arranged to fit each person’s schedule. People who choose her often want a direct, caring clinician who will listen and offer concrete strategies.
She aims to help clients notice progress, build new skills, and make decisions that fit their values.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s experience. In practice this means the therapist reflects what you say and helps you name your priorities, which can be done just as effectively on video or by phone. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses short exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting; it works well in online sessions where worksheets and homework can be shared electronically.Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. The therapist will help you pick methods that match your goals, preferences, and the issues you bring. That plan can change over time as you try techniques and notice what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different needs. Video is useful when you want face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits your day. Live chat and text messaging work for quick updates, ongoing support between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while still working on skills and goals with a licensed professional.
