As a licensed therapist in Indiana with over 16 years of experience, I’ve worked with a wide range of people navigating stress, anxiety, addiction, and relationship challenges. I care deeply about the work I do, and I show up for my clients in a real, grounded way.
My style is compassionate, but it is also direct. I am not the kind of therapist who just nods along. I am going to be honest with you, even when it is uncomfortable, because that is where real change happens. I will challenge patterns that are not serving you, help you see things from a different perspective, and support you in doing the work it takes to grow. That means you have to be willing to hear feedback and be open to it.
I often work with clients dealing with social anxiety, trauma, attachment issues, and communication struggles. Together, we focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and improving how you show up in your relationships, both with others and with yourself.
At the end of the day, my goal is to help you feel more grounded, more confident, and more connected. I will meet you with empathy, but I will also be real with you, because you deserve honesty, clarity, and meaningful progress.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Julie Otis. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Julie listens well and has good recommendations on things I can do in between sessions to help myself w the issues we’re working on. She has also shared some worksheets that are really helpful and make it easier to retain and remember what we’ve been working on
Written on Mar 10, 2026 after therapy with Julie for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and anger management
