About Julie
Dr. Julie Eberwein is a licensed mental health counselor who holds LMHC and LPC-MHSP credentials and practices in Florida. She brings 25 years of experience helping people with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, depression, trauma, grief, and other life challenges.
She works with individuals and with couples on trust, communication, and emotional closeness. Her approach centers on emotions and attachment patterns, and she uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other methods to address what shows up in relationships and daily life. Sessions focus on noticing feelings, naming them, and responding differently in the moment.
Julie also draws on cognitive behavioral strategies and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful habits and get clearer about values and goals. Client-centered listening guides the conversation so people can make practical shifts they want. She integrates approaches as needed rather than relying on a single technique.
Her background includes long-term clinical work with mood instability, co-occurring disorders, substance use, and LGBTQIA+ concerns. She helps people working through parenting strain, caregiving stress, eating and food-related issues, and grief. She also addresses patterns like codependency, commitment worries, control issues, and communication problems.
Sessions typically explore current problems and recent events first, then move into the relationship and emotion patterns that keep those problems repeating. Practical skills and clearer communication are common focuses when appropriate. To begin, readers are invited to use the site matching tools to schedule a first session and share what matters to them.
How EFT and related approaches work in online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with emotions and attachment needs that drive relationship patterns. EFT sessions help people name strong feelings, notice how they show up in interactions, and respond differently to reduce repeating conflicts.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and choosing actions that align with personal values. This can help with anxiety, addiction triggers, and coping with life changes.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early and current relationship patterns to understand why certain situations trigger strong reactions, which is useful for intimacy concerns and trust issues.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to emphasize. Clients and the therapist decide together what feels most useful and adjust the plan over time.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the listing does not specify formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and avoid travel. Licensed professionals can use the same emotion-focused and behavioral tools through remote sessions as in person, and practical skill practice and communication work translate well to a virtual setting.
