About Julianne

Julianne Chace is a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) based in Massachusetts who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

She brings five years of professional experience to her practice and focuses on building an accepting, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult emotions and patterns. Julianne emphasizes practical strategies alongside deeper therapeutic exploration to help people manage symptoms and move toward greater emotional balance.

Her work also addresses a wide range of related challenges including attachment concerns, process addictions, post-traumatic stress, caregiver stress, feelings of isolation, and communication difficulties. She draws from evidence-informed models to tailor care to each person’s needs, encouraging collaborative goal-setting and steady progress.

Julianne aims to support clients through change with empathy, clear guidance, and a focus on personal strengths.

Integrating approaches for online healing and growth

Julianne uses Internal Family Systems to help clients notice and relate to different inner parts with curiosity and compassion, which can be especially helpful for people dealing with trauma, conflicting urges, or strong emotions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another tool she employs to support clients in clarifying values, increasing psychological flexibility, and taking committed action even when difficult feelings arise. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore relational patterns and improve how clients connect with others, addressing issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, and caregiver stress.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She works with each person to identify their needs, preferences, and goals, and then combines methods to create a tailored plan rather than relying on a single technique. Clients are invited to give feedback so treatment can shift as their priorities evolve.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase access and flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow ongoing work from wherever a client is located in Massachusetts and make it easier to maintain consistent care while balancing daily life.
