About Julie Butler

Julie Butler is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Iowa with 10 years of experience in the behavioral health field. She has worked across individual, couples, family, child, and group therapy settings, helping people navigate a wide range of life challenges and emotional concerns.

She takes a holistic view of mental and emotional wellness, recognizing that patterns of thought and behavior develop from multiple life influences. To uncover those patterns she often draws on Adlerian ideas to explore how early beliefs and relational dynamics formed. From that foundation she uses cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused techniques to help clients adopt more constructive beliefs and practical coping strategies.

Her aim is to support clients in discovering strengths and tools within themselves so they can move forward feeling more satisfied, hopeful, and empowered. Julie integrates insight-oriented and action-oriented methods to tailor her work to each person’s needs.
