Getting to know Julie Batson

Hello, I am Julie Batson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Southeast Missouri State University and over 20 years of experience providing therapy. My approach is to listen with empathy and compassion and to build a trusting therapeutic relationship where you can grow, learn, and explore in order to meet your goals and make the changes you want to make. My therapy approach centers on building trust and rapport with you, discovering your goals and needs. I listen with compassion and empathy, creating a safe space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and needs. I use cognitive behavioral, person-centered, and trauma-focused techniques tailored to your unique situation. My experience primarily focuses on helping clients recover from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression, anxiety, and in building healthy relationships. I am an empathetic, active, and non-judgmental listener, ensuring you feel seen, heard, and safe to share your vulnerability. I create a relaxed environment where you can freely explore and express your thoughts and feelings, no matter how distressing. Having been a therapist for over 20 years, my personal and professional experiences have deepened my belief that our shared humanity connects us all. Providing therapy and walking this path with my clients is the most rewarding and fulfilling career I could imagine. When setting goals, I focus entirely on what you want to achieve in therapy. Together, we find realistic and achievable goals that are meaningful to you. Our first session is about getting to know each other, discussing what brings you to therapy, and what you hope to learn and change. We will address any pressing issues you have, assess for risk and safety, and gather relevant history to support your care.
