Julie Dunn, LPC - Therapist in Missouri

About Julie

Julie Dunn is a Licensed Professional Counselor with ten years of experience working in Missouri. She focuses on family and parenting concerns as well as common struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. She aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable.

The tone in sessions is calm and straightforward. She creates a welcoming space where people can share difficult thoughts and feelings without judgment. Sessions center on what matters most to the client and on practical ways to move forward.

Background and approach

Julie listens closely and helps clients name priorities and next steps. Julie draws on client-centered methods to meet each person where they are. That means the work follows the client’s pace and goals, not a rigid agenda.

She also uses solution-focused ideas to identify small, concrete changes that can make daily life easier. Parents and family members looking for help with communication, blended family issues, or parenting challenges will find a practical orientation in her approach. Other areas she commonly addresses include ADHD, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, and coping with life changes.

Her manner is supportive and down-to-earth. Sessions are aimed at making progress that feels realistic for everyday life. Prospective clients can expect clear conversation about goals and simple steps to try between meetings.

Approaches that fit family and parenting needs online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client’s experience. The counselor follows the client’s lead and builds on what the client says is most important, which helps when family dynamics or parenting challenges feel overwhelming.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical changes that can lead to better days. This approach helps set clear, short-term goals and identify steps clients can try between sessions to improve communication or manage stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adapt methods so they match the client’s situation. That collaborative planning helps make sessions relevant and useful from the start.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options offer flexibility for busy family schedules, allow support from home, and make it easier to fit therapy into daily life. Licensed professionals can use these formats to focus on practical problem solving and steady progress toward goals.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
