Julie Hamoui, LCSW

Julie Hamoui is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 12 years of experience in mental health and wellness. She focuses on helping people build kinder relationships with themselves and find practical ways to cope. Julie frames sessions around the person in front of her and aims to make therapy feel approachable and respectful.

Her work centers on spotting and shifting negative thoughts and beliefs about the self. She helps clients reframe unhelpful thinking and practice mindful habits that support daily life. Sessions include talking through challenges and learning concrete coping tools that can be used between visits.

Julie uses a person-centered stance to guide goal-setting and decision-making. She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to identify thought patterns and on attachment-based ideas to understand relationships and connection. Emotion-focused perspectives and dialectical behavior skills also appear when they fit the person’s needs.

In sessions she validates feelings and encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes. Conversations typically cover symptoms, daily stressors, relationship patterns, and practical steps to feel better. The tone is supportive and solution-minded, with an emphasis on small, sustainable changes.

Clients coming for issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, parenting stress, or life transitions will find a steady collaborator. Julie also addresses a wide range of concerns including addiction, trauma and abuse, ADHD, body image, caregiving strain, and career questions. She invites prospective clients to consider what matters most to them and to begin from there.

How Julie’s approaches translate to online work

Julie often uses person-centered ideas that let the client set the pace and goals. This approach focuses on listening, validating feelings, and shaping sessions around each person’s priorities. It helps when someone needs a steady, respectful space to sort out difficult emotions.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. CBT offers clear steps for noticing thoughts, testing them, and practicing different ways of thinking and acting, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about how relationships and early experiences affect current patterns and connection with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Julie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. Goals, preferences, and the issues at hand guide that choice rather than a fixed treatment plan.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. It can also enable varied session pacing, like shorter check-ins or longer, deeper conversations, depending on what a person needs.
