About Julie

Julie Tademy-Thorpe is a licensed clinical social worker who uses evidence-based methods to help people navigate relationship and family challenges. She is a LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with seven years of clinical experience. Julie works with common concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, and parenting difficulties.

Sessions aim to be practical and collaborative, focused on what matters most to each person. Julie draws on experience with trauma and abuse to support people through difficult feelings and situations.

Background and approach

She also addresses issues related to addiction, grief, intimacy, anger, and self-esteem. Her work includes attention to mood disorders, bipolar conditions, and panic symptoms when they affect daily life. Family and parenting concerns are a frequent focus in her work.

She also helps with ADHD, postpartum depression, attachment and abandonment issues, and blended family dynamics. Julie listens for cultural and multicultural concerns that shape each person’s story. Julie holds Tennessee LCSW 9204 and Pennsylvania LCSW CW022940 and practices in Pennsylvania.

She prefers to create plans together with each client. That means setting goals, trying practical strategies, and checking progress over time. Her style is warm and straightforward.

Conversations are meant to feel honest and useful. Julie aims to support people as they make real changes that fit their lives.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care

Julie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes skill-building for emotional regulation and coping, helping people manage anxiety, panic, and intense mood shifts in day-to-day situations. Another common method focuses on improving communication and problem solving for relationship and family concerns, which can help with parenting conflicts and blended family dynamics.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. That way the work stays focused on what feels useful and realistic for each person.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to keep continuity when life gets hectic. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver the same kinds of evidence-based work they would in person, while adapting timing and tools to each person's needs.
