About Julie
Julie Mannarino is a Pennsylvania LCSW with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, career questions, depression, and life transitions. Julie also addresses relationship concerns, parenting strain, grief, and issues related to life purpose and intimacy.
She uses clear, practical approaches in sessions. Julie draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered methods, the Gottman Method, and mindfulness practices. Expect conversations that focus on what matters to you and on small, doable changes between meetings.
Julie helps people talk through work and relationship shifts, manage mood symptoms, and cope with grief or caregiving strain. She also supports people facing obsessive thoughts, postpartum mood changes, ADHD challenges, and anger or jealousy concerns. Sessions aim to identify concrete next steps rather than abstract plans.
Her style is straightforward and grounded. Julie listens for the values and goals a person wants to live by, then links that to skills and experiments to try outside sessions. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking and mindfulness exercises to build awareness.
People who come because they feel stuck after a job change, relationship ending, health issue, or parenting transition often find the work focused on practical choices. Julie helps clarify priorities and build routines that fit daily life. To begin, follow the site process to match and book an initial session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values. Online ACT sessions often include exercises to notice thoughts and plan small experiments to try between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT online can involve reviewing thought records, practicing behavioral experiments, and tracking progress together.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they check what helps and adjust techniques as needed rather than sticking to a single method.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy life and making it easier to keep regular appointments. If you are considering remote sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online meetings can make it simpler to schedule short check-ins, practice skills during a week, or continue care after a life change without added travel.
