Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE , BACP

Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE is a psychotherapist, counsellor and life coach with more than 25 years of experience supporting people to move from where they are to where they want to be. She works with a wide range of methods and adapts her approach to the needs of each individual, beginning with an initial call to make sure the therapeutic fit feels right.

She approaches clients with the view that people are not defined by their behaviours and that everyone has internal resources to change and grow. Her work emphasizes the therapeutic relationship - a respectful, trusting connection that gives people the space to explore deep issues, release limiting decisions and discover positive ways forward.

Julie uses a blend of counselling and coaching techniques tailored to the person in front of her. Her repertoire includes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), person-centred and humanistic approaches, Gestalt and integrative methods, NLP and Time Line Therapy, hypnotic techniques and breakthrough life coaching. Tools such as the MindSonar profile are used to clarify thinking patterns in specific contexts.

Time Line Therapy and targeted coaching sessions are highlighted as efficient ways to address negative emotions, limiting beliefs and phobias while realigning values to support motivation and future goals. The overall aim is to help clients shed long-held burdens so they can move forward without needing repeated counselling. Julie offers online appointments across the UK and internationally and is available to discuss how her blend of psychotherapy and coaching might suit each person.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE draws on several well established approaches to tailor online therapy to each person. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead - this helps people who need to explore feelings, identity and self-esteem at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems. Hypnotherapy works with focused relaxation and guided imagery to address patterns such as phobias, limiting beliefs and unhelpful habits and can be used alongside other therapies to deepen change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Julie works collaboratively with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs and adjust the plan as progress is made. This collaborative process helps ensure the chosen techniques align with the client’s preferences and circumstances.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, giving practical flexibility for different lifestyles and time zones. These options make it easier to access regular support, reduce travel time and maintain continuity of care, while allowing therapists and licensed professionals to use the approaches that best support each client’s goals.
