About Julie-Ann
Julie-Ann Huggins is a BACP counsellor with five years' experience. She creates a warm, interactive space where people can talk plainly about difficult thoughts and feelings. Her approach is practical and solution-focused, aimed at helping clients find more meaning and better day-to-day coping.
She blends counselling and coaching to tailor sessions around each person's needs. That means looking at habits, relationships, and the small changes that build up over time.
Background and approach
Julie-Ann often works with stress, anxiety and depression, and with people facing grief, addiction or career uncertainty. Her practice uses a mix of methods to suit different situations. Sessions may include practical exercises, values-focused reflection, and working on communication or coping skills.
The emphasis is on simple, repeatable steps that clients can try between meetings. Julie-Ann also supports people through parenting strain, family conflict, and issues around identity and intimacy. She mentions work with trauma and abuse, attachment concerns, and long-term health or caregiving stress.
The goals are clearer choices, steadier moods, and improved daily functioning. Sessions are offered online in a bespoke format that adapts to each person. People can expect a collaborative style in which therapist and client set aims together.
The tone is supportive and non-judgemental, with an eye on practical progress rather than labels or jargon.

Online support
She also draws on client-centred work to keep sessions person-led and collaborative. That means the client’s pace and priorities shape each meeting, and the therapist helps reflect back what matters most. Choosing the right approach is a shared process; Julie-Ann will discuss options and adapt methods based on a person’s goals, life situation and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video works well when visual contact helps build rapport, phone can be simpler if bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can be useful for short check-ins or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel, and they allow consistent contact while trying new skills between sessions.
