About Julia Brooker
Julia Brooker is an empathetic BACP-accredited integrative counsellor and cognitive behavioural therapist practising in the United Kingdom with 11 years of professional experience. BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a recognised professional body that denotes accredited training and practice standards.
She works with people struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, experiences of abuse, self-harm, or addiction, offering a supportive space to examine the underlying causes of current difficulties. Julia aims to collaborate with clients to set clear goals and develop practical strategies that help rebuild confidence and improve overall well-being.
Her approach centres on Person-Centred Therapy, which places the individual as the expert in their own life and emphasises empathy, respect, and genuine engagement. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tools to explore unhelpful patterns of thought, feeling, and behaviour. With increased awareness of those patterns, clients and Julia work together to identify small, achievable changes that can lead to meaningful personal growth.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?
Many people ask whether meeting with a therapist remotely can make a real difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional face-to-face sessions.One of the clearest benefits is flexibility - clients can connect in the way that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, manage mobility constraints, or maintain continuity during life transitions.
Licensed professionals and therapists deliver care through these remote options, and clients are able to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, effective route to consistent therapeutic support.
