Practical Tools and Personal Meaning in Online Therapy

Julie Gallivan integrates evidence-informed approaches that can be especially helpful when life feels complicated, relationships feel strained, or stress and anxiety start to take over day-to-day routines. With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), she helps clients notice how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another, then practice new ways of responding that better support their goals in areas like communication, self-worth, and coping with transitions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) adds another layer by helping clients make room for difficult feelings while taking steps toward what matters most. This can be useful when someone feels stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about direction and purpose. Mindfulness-based strategies can also help clients build steadier awareness and reduce reactivity, supporting emotional balance during stressful seasons or relationship conflict.

Finding the right fit is part of the process. Julie collaborates with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked in the past, then adjusts the approach over time to stay aligned with the client’s needs.

Online therapy makes that support more accessible and flexible. Clients can meet with her through video calls or phone sessions, and can also use live chat or text-based messaging to stay engaged between sessions when that format is a better match.
