Julia Brown, LPC

Julia Brown is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 32 years of experience helping people face trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She focuses on practical ways to manage stress, cope with losses, and rebuild confidence after difficult events. Julia works in Mississippi and speaks English.

Her background includes direct clinical work and long-term supervisory roles in mental health settings. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Mississippi College and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from the University of Southern Mississippi. She became a licensed professional counselor in 1994 and added an LPC supervisor credential in 2008.

Julia uses approaches that include cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness practices, solution-focused methods, and trauma-focused work. In sessions she aims to help people identify patterns that keep them stuck, learn new coping skills, and set small, achievable goals.

Her experience includes crisis intervention, trauma-focused therapy, and work with veterans and first responders. She has also provided services to adults and adolescents, and she currently does contract work supporting people transitioning from federal prison into halfway house settings.

People looking for help with adoption and foster care concerns, aging and geriatric issues, relationship and family challenges, or career and life-purpose questions may find her experience relevant. She describes her work as a response to a broad need for healing after loss, disaster, and personal crisis.

How therapy approaches guide online care

Julia often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try concrete behavior changes. CBT is short-term and problem-focused, and it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal effectiveness. DBT techniques can help when strong emotions, relationship conflicts, or self-destructive patterns are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That process can include trying a skill-based strategy for several sessions and adjusting as needed.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time to appointments. Many people find that remote sessions help maintain continuity of care during life transitions and make regular practice of new skills more feasible.
