About Julie
Julie Rothfeld is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She earned a Masters in Mental Health Counseling from the College of William & Mary and brings four years of clinical experience to her practice.
Background and approach
Julie focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma, depression, and major life transitions. She uses a direct yet compassionate style.
Sessions tend to be practical and conversational. Julie works with each person to create goals that feel realistic and relevant to daily life.
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and to try small behavior changes.
The Gottman Method informs her work around relationship dynamics and communication skills. Julie pays attention to the emotional side of problems like grief, shame, and abandonment.
She helps people name difficult feelings and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others. For issues such as addiction, sleep problems, or mood disorders, she combines short-term strategies with longer-term planning.
Practical matters are part of the plan. Julie adapts sessions to fit parenting schedules, work demands, and life stressors.
She encourages steady progress through small steps and regular check-ins. If you want focused, respectful care that aims for real changes, she can help you move forward.
How evidence-informed approaches translate online
Julie uses methods that translate well to remote work. The Gottman Method focuses on clear communication patterns and practical exercises to improve relationship interactions, such as structured turn-taking and conflict management skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current emotional responses and helps people practice new ways of connecting and regulating feelings. Client-Centered Therapy creates a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist reflects and supports growth.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Julie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust them as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for interactive exercises and body language cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a work break. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to keep momentum between sessions and to share brief updates or reflections. These options provide flexibility so therapy can fit into busy schedules and changing life demands.
