Julie Mitton

Julie Mitton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Utah who focuses on helping people through grief, stress, anxiety, relationship strains, and life changes. She draws on 18 years of clinical experience and approaches each person with a nonjudgmental, team-oriented attitude. Julie aims to help people build coping skills and regain confidence during difficult times.

She uses a mix of practical techniques to meet people where they are. Sessions emphasize clear goals, skill-building, and repeated practice of new ways to handle strong emotions. Julie uses client-centered conversations alongside approaches that help people notice thoughts and change unhelpful patterns.

Her background includes outpatient and school mental health settings. That work exposed her to a wide range of concerns, from parenting and family problems to trauma, intimacy issues, and hospice and end-of-life counseling. She also brings personal experience as a parent into sessions when helpful to explore caregiving stress and everyday family challenges.

In therapy she collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs. That might involve learning tools from cognitive behavioral strategies, attending to attachment patterns, or practicing emotion regulation skills. The focus is on making tangible changes that feel meaningful in daily life.

Julie notes practical details up front, such as being licensed in Utah and recommending a computer or laptop for the best connection. She remains responsive about scheduling and encourages people to treat the first steps as the start of a healing process.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current connections; it can help people understand trust issues, abandonment fears, and relationship cycles. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and support, giving people space to lead the conversation while the therapist reflects and clarifies to build insight and confidence. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood.

Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean trying one approach for a few sessions and adjusting as progress is reviewed.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the therapist notes a preference for using a computer or laptop for the best connection. Please confirm available session formats when you match and schedule. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or reduce travel time so people can focus on practicing new skills between meetings.
