About Julie

Julie Jalewsky is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Massachusetts with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage depression, anxiety, and major life changes with straightforward care and steady support.

Julie uses clear, evidence-informed methods to help people identify what’s causing strain and to build practical skills for coping. She pays attention to communication, relationships, and personal identity while respecting each person's story.

She has experience supporting LGBTQ+ people, young adults, and others facing big transitions. Her work covers mood disorders, workplace stress, grief, addiction struggles, and challenges like parenting and self-esteem concerns.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-focused. Julie helps people try new ways of thinking and acting, practice mindfulness, and tell their story in ways that make sense to them.

People can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space to talk through problems and experiment with tools that fit real life. The focus is on practical steps that make daily life easier and on building resilience for future challenges.

How Julie’s approaches work online

Julie commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practicing concrete steps to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation, useful for stress, grief, and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Julie will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods collaboratively and adjust them over time to fit the person's needs.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, offering shorter check-ins when needed, and allowing people to join from different locations when schedules change. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about what setup will work best for your routine and goals.
