About Julie

Julie Reibsane is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, with an active LCSW-C credential in Maryland and licensure in Pennsylvania. She has three years of documented experience in clinical practice and works with concerns such as relationship strain, family issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, depression, anxiety, parenting stress, grief, anger, and bipolar-related concerns.

Julie focuses on straightforward conversations and practical strategies. She uses approaches like cognitive behavioral, motivational interviewing, solution-focused, and trauma-focused work to address the problems people bring. Sessions aim to identify patterns, test small changes, and build clearer communication and coping skills.

Her background includes work with people affected by military and veteran experiences and those living with post-traumatic stress. She also supports people managing family problems and communication breakdowns at home. The emphasis is on skills that can be used between sessions to reduce daily stress and improve interactions.

In sessions Julie listens for what matters most and then helps set short-term goals. She explains options and tries techniques that fit the client's situation. Progress is tracked by reviewing what changes feel helpful and what needs adjusting.

Julie speaks English and practices in Pennsylvania. To begin, a reader would follow the provider's online matching steps and schedule an initial appointment to discuss current concerns and next steps.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Julie commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. CBT often focuses on specific problems like anxiety, mood, or recurring conflicts and breaks them into manageable steps.

She also draws on motivational interviewing to clarify what matters to the client and to support small, achievable change. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps and prefers a collaborative, goal-focused conversation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps. That collaborative process means the plan can shift as needs and preferences become clearer.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people join from quieter surroundings or during a break at work. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to the realities of home life, helping clients practice skills between meetings.
