Julie Rothfeld, LMHC

Julie Rothfeld is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from the College of William & Mary and four years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, and major life changes. Her approach is grounded in respect, sensitivity, and steady support as clients take steps toward a more satisfying life.

She uses clear, conversational sessions rather than jargon. Julie listens for patterns tied to attachment, communication, and past hurts. From there she works with each person to set practical goals. That might mean learning new ways to manage anxiety, improving sleep and daily routines, or sorting feelings after a betrayal or loss.

Julie draws on several evidence-informed methods to shape sessions. She blends Attachment-Based work to understand emotional bonds, Client-Centered strategies that follow the client’s priorities, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses narrative techniques to help people reframe difficult stories and the Gottman Method for relationship communication when relevant.

Clients can expect a collaborative tone. Julie aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s needs. She pays attention to caregiver strain, identity questions in midlife, and challenges tied to parenting, career, or grief.

Overall her practice centers on steady, practical steps. She supports people taking the first steps toward change, offering guidance while honoring each person’s pace and goals.

How these approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current emotional responses. Online conversations can help uncover those patterns and teach new ways to connect and respond. Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s priorities at the center of sessions and uses reflective listening to guide change; it works well through verbal dialogue and focused check-ins. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises and homework between meetings, which fits straightforwardly into remote sessions.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Julie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs, then recommend approaches to try. The plan is adjusted as sessions progress so methods match what actually helps the client move forward.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into work or caregiving days. It can reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep regular appointments. Because formats were not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking to know which online formats are offered. The focus is on making therapy work in a real-life schedule rather than promising a particular delivery method.
