More about Julie

  • LCSW

Congratulations on investing in your mental health! Building a trusting relationship with a therapist is very important for counseling to be effective, so take your time reading about, and ultimately interviewing your prospective counselor. My name is Julie Fahlmann and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R) in New York. I have a BA in Psychology with a specialization in Forensic Psychology and then earned my MSW in 2004 from the University at Albany School of Social Welfare. In addition, I am a Certified School Social Worker for UPK-12. During my 22-year career in mental health, I have had the privilege of working within numerous agencies and with a variety of individuals. I have experience in working as a psychiatric social worker in an emergency room, outpatient therapist, probation officer, addiction counselor, behavior specialist for individuals with developmental disabilities, medical social worker for a homecare agency, school social worker, and was a social worker in a county correctional facility.

My therapeutic approach combines Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic, and Rational-Emotive counseling. I specialize in assessment, trauma, addiction, prevention, and explore risk and protective factors while implementing realistic treatment plans that are developed with your goals as the primary focus.

Although I have a set schedule and have mostly evening times available, I do have some flexibility if you need a different time slot than what appears. I look forward to hearing from you and hope you have a wonderful day.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
