Julie Hamoui , LCSW

Julie Hamoui is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with more than twelve years of experience in mental health and wellness. She has worked with individuals, families, and groups across the lifespan, addressing a wide range of needs from acute symptoms to long-term personal growth. As an LCSW she holds a clinical social work credential that authorizes her to provide psychotherapy and support in clinical settings.

Julie centers her practice on fostering self-love and helping people develop healthier relationships with themselves. Her approach emphasizes empowering clients to be their authentic selves while actively addressing negative thoughts, limiting beliefs, and unhelpful patterns. She uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to reframe thoughts, motivational interviewing to strengthen internal motivation, mindfulness practices to increase present-moment awareness, and solution-focused strategies to identify practical steps forward.

Sessions are designed to explore challenges, symptoms, needs, and desires while validating emotions and lived experience. Julie works from a person-centered stance that prioritizes each client’s goals, and she introduces coping tools, skills, and strategies that can be applied in daily life to improve well-being. Her work supports people navigating stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and family concerns, trauma, addiction, and life transitions.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance that places the client’s goals and values at the center of the process. It focuses on listening, empathy, and support so clients can explore identity, self-esteem, and personal growth at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors by teaching practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. It is focused and goal-oriented, offering tools for daily use. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship experiences shape current patterns in close relationships and emotional responses; it can be helpful for issues such as abandonment, relational conflict, and parenting concerns.

Deciding on the right approach is a collaborative process. Julie reviews each person’s needs, goals, and preferences and combines elements from these approaches to form a tailored plan. She works with clients to evaluate what feels most useful and adjusts strategies over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, mobility limitations, or geographic constraints. Using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging can make it easier to attend sessions consistently and to integrate therapeutic skills into everyday life. Licensed professionals can deliver effective support through these modalities while adapting methods to fit each client’s routine and learning style.
