About Julian
Julian Hart is a counsellor who draws on existential ideas to help people find meaning and direction. He combines that outlook with practical approaches to help with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and relationship strain. Julian aims to make sessions straightforward and useful from the first meeting.
He has three decades of experience in counselling and psychotherapy. Over that time he has supported people through grief, trauma and abuse, chronic illness and chronic pain, and the stress that comes with major life changes.
Background and approach
He also helps with sleep problems, anger and work-related pressure. Julian uses a mix of methods to suit each person. He works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred ideas alongside existential ways of thinking.
That blend lets him offer hands-on strategies as well as deeper conversations about values and purpose. Sessions aim to leave people with practical tools. These can include steps to manage panic, techniques to reduce compulsive behaviours, and ways to cope with guilt or shame.
Julian also supports people dealing with sexual assault, abandonment and issues around forgiveness. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Julian offers sessions in English and works with people based in the United Kingdom.
Initial arrangements are made online, by phone or messaging to suit individual needs.

Online support
Approaches online that combine meaning and skills
Julian commonly uses Existential Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online work. Existential Therapy helps people look at questions of meaning, purpose and choice to address feelings of emptiness or midlife crisis. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and practical actions, helping with anxiety, panic and compulsive behaviours by teaching ways to accept difficult thoughts and commit to meaningful steps.Choosing the right approach is part of the journey and happens together. The therapist will discuss your concerns, goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted as you go to find what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let you see non-verbal cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for brief check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping the focus on practical progress and deeper understanding.
