Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE, BACP

Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE is a psychotherapist, counsellor and life coach with over 25 years of experience supporting people across the United Kingdom and internationally. She holds BACP accreditation - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and has worked with hundreds of clients on issues that include stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, ADHD and more.

Her practice is flexible and integrative, adapting methods to suit each person rather than applying a single fixed model. She works from the belief that people are not defined by their behaviours and that most individuals already possess the resources needed to change and to build on their potential. Establishing a strong therapeutic fit is a priority, and an initial conversation helps both parties decide whether to proceed.

Central to Dr. Bradshaw's approach is the quality of the working relationship. She offers a respectful, nonjudgmental space for clients to explore deep issues, examine limiting beliefs and move toward practical goals. Her toolkit draws on a range of approaches used selectively to meet individual needs, including client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques, hypnotherapy, Time Line Therapy, neuro-linguistic programming, Gestalt and integrative life coaching strategies, alongside tools such as the MindSonar profile measurement.

Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE offers online appointments across the UK and worldwide, and she welcomes enquiries from people seeking a collaborative, experienced therapist to help them make meaningful change.

Online therapeutic approaches and flexible care

Dr. Julie Bradshaw MBE uses client-centred therapy to place the relationship and the client's own goals at the heart of the work. This approach emphasises empathy and understanding, helping people explore feelings and find their own solutions for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and life transitions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - CBT - which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress and many recurring symptoms where practical coping strategies are helpful.

Hypnotherapy is offered as an adjunctive method that works with focused relaxation and guided imagery to access deeper patterns of thinking and feeling; it can support change in areas such as addictions, phobias and habit-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Bradshaw will work with each person to assess needs, preferences and goals and to choose one or more methods that fit the situation, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people balancing work, family or geographical constraints. These options enable regular, accessible contact with a registered professional and make it easier to maintain continuity of care from the UK or abroad.
