Julia Eduardo, BACP

Julia Eduardo is an integrative counsellor with ten years of clinical experience working across addiction, trauma, relationship and mental health concerns. She began her training with a Diploma in counselling skills and went on to complete a degree in Integrative Counselling, training that allows her to draw from several therapeutic models to tailor support to each person's needs. She has extensive experience in drug and alcohol addiction work with both children and adults and currently provides person-centered and solution-focused therapy within criminal justice settings to address depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD and relational difficulties.

Prior to counselling, Julia spent more than 15 years working in the health sector, and she continues to draw on that background when offering holistic support. As a neurodivergent practitioner, she values adaptable approaches and attention to detail, and she enjoys working with clients who need focused, structured practices alongside open, exploratory conversation. Her voluntary and professional roles across London, Essex, Birmingham, Manchester and Cambridge have broadened her experience with diverse communities and presenting issues.

Julia holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and she combines clinical training with practical experience to support people through grief, addiction, relationship and identity concerns, and life transitions. She aims to offer a collaborative space where talking and other forms of expression are offered as choices to help clients explore, seek, or conclude chapters in their lives.

Integrative approaches and online therapy options

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a supportive, non-directive relationship in which the client leads the pace and focus of sessions. It helps when people need space to explore feelings, values, and personal choices without pressure. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression and unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness and can be useful for intense emotions and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Julia Eduardo works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods suit their goals, preferences and life context, and she adapts techniques over time as needs change. This collaborative planning helps ensure that work feels relevant and manageable for the individual.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people juggling work, family or health needs. These options make it possible to access regular therapy from different locations and in formats that fit a client’s communication style, whether they prefer spoken conversation or shorter written exchanges. Registered professionals and therapists can use these remote formats to provide consistent, tailored care.
