About Julia Eduardo
Julia Eduardo is an integrative counsellor with ten years of professional experience working across addiction services, criminal justice settings, and community organisations. She began her training with a Diploma in counselling skills and went on to complete a degree in Integrative Counselling, training that enables her to draw on multiple therapeutic methods to meet each client's particular needs. As someone with a lengthy background in the health sector spanning more than 15 years, she combines clinical knowledge and practical experience to offer holistic support to people facing complex challenges.
Her practice has a strong foundation in work with drug and alcohol addiction for both children and adults, and she now also supports people dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD and relationship difficulties using person-centred and solution-focused approaches. Julia values flexibility in how therapy is offered and adapts interventions to suit clients who need focused, detail-oriented support; she also speaks English and Lingala, and her volunteer experience spans London, Essex, Birmingham, Manchester and Cambridge.
Julia identifies as neurodivergent and uses that perspective to inform a compassionate, tailored style of counselling. She is a member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which is a UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. She believes that talking and other forms of expression should be offered as choices, and she aims to help people explore, process or bring closure to chapters of their lives when they are ready. Julia welcomes conversations with prospective clients and looks forward to meeting people who seek collaborative, integrative support.

Integrative approaches and online therapy options
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's own experience and priorities, offering a supportive, non-directive environment where people can explore feelings and make choices that align with their values. It is often useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, grief and general emotional support.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and adjust unhelpful thought and behavior patterns through practical strategies and exercises. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress and some trauma-related symptoms because it supports concrete coping skills.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies and teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can be helpful for intense emotions, self-harm behaviors, and difficulties with relationships and impulse control.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Julia will work collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals and preferences and to tailor methods from her integrative training so the chosen approach fits the client rather than the other way around.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into busy lives, to maintain continuity when travel or caregiving make in-person meetings difficult, and to connect with licensed professionals from different locations. These options support regular engagement and allow therapists and clients to choose the format that best suits the work they want to do.
