Julie Seifert, LPC

Julie Seifert is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Arizona. She has eight years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, or struggles with self-esteem. Julie focuses on practical steps to reduce daily tension and improve how people cope.

She creates a calm, accepting space where clients can talk about what matters. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Julie listens first, then helps people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors that get in the way.

Julie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. She also draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the client’s goals and lived experience. Solution-focused techniques help set clear, short-term goals and find small changes that make a difference.

Her work often addresses relationship strain, parenting stress, blended family issues, communication problems, and challenges around divorce or separation. She also supports people dealing with workplace pressure, guilt and shame, panic attacks, and issues common to young adults and women.

People can expect straightforward tools they can use between sessions. Julie helps clients practice new responses to anger, build self-love, and rebuild confidence. She invites clients to take the next step when they feel ready.

Practical approaches for online therapy and change

Julie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people see how thoughts influence feelings and actions; this approach focuses on skill building and practical exercises that can be practiced between sessions to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Client-Centered Therapy is another part of her work where the session follows the client's concerns and priorities, and the therapist offers empathetic listening and support to help clients find their own solutions. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set small, achievable goals and to identify steps that move a person toward their preferred outcomes.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the collaborative process. Julie works together with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a quicker check-in. Live chat and messaging allow short, flexible exchanges and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied routines.
