About Julie
Julie Mitton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in Utah with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and life transitions. Sessions address intimacy-related struggles, sleep problems, career questions, and compassion fatigue as noted in her background.
Julie has practiced in outpatient clinics, schools, and other mental health settings. She has supported children, teenagers, women, and couples in past roles and draws on that range when helping individuals. Her work often focuses on attachment and relationship patterns, and she uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy among other approaches.
In session she combines practical tools with active listening. Clients can expect help developing coping skills, improving communication, and working through grief or loss. She uses methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when they fit the goals.
Julie is also a parent and says that experience informs her perspective on family and parenting issues. She introduces skills parents can use right away and builds on strengths people already have. She asks clients to use a computer or laptop for the best connection when meeting remotely.
Her practice notes that sessions must take place while clients are physically in Utah. She schedules thoughtfully and allows a ten minute grace period at the start of sessions. Julie mentions a cat that sometimes interrupts meetings, which she says is part of her work-from-home life.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on identifying and reshaping emotional responses and attachment patterns in relationships. It can help when strong emotions are hard to name and when connection needs repairing.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early and current relationship patterns that shape how people relate to others. It supports work on abandonment, codependency, and communication problems by tracing how attachment shows up now.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s own goals and rhythm. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people choose practical steps that suit their daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change as progress unfolds and as different skills are needed.
The profile notes that a computer or laptop is best for remote sessions and that clients must be physically located in Utah for sessions. If you plan to meet remotely, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work or family schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy can work around everyday commitments.
