Julie Burnett is a counselor with 11 years of experience. Her focus is working with clients ages 11 and older — individuals, couples, and/or families. Julie believes that all people deserve to be treated with respect and, therefore, respect is a foundational part of her counseling sessions. Julie specializes in general mental health, relationships, grief and loss, domestic abuse, and parenting. She believes that clients are the experts on their own lives, so they are the ones to choose the topics for each session while Julie brings various techniques that can help. Together they create healthy life goals and decide what techniques they want to try. Julie believes that she is here simply to be a helping hand, a listening ear, and a friendly guide as the client navigates through difficult times. In order to help clients find their way to healing on the other side of pain, Julie provides new insights, teaches new skills, introduces new knowledge, helps to broaden the client’s focus, and encourages clients to practice new skills. While Julie will never preach to the client or try to change their beliefs about faith, as a Christian, she views the world through a biblical lens.
Since she was young, Julie has wanted to help people work through their problems so they can have happier, healthier lives. She often found herself being the one her friends went to for help with their problems. She saw counseling as a way to help others. During her studies she was excited to learn that the best helping skill is listening non-judgmentally, the one skill she had been practicing since she was young. She also learned many other counseling techniques and skills that she integrates into sessions with clients. Since earning her counseling degree in 2011, she has served in a variety of settings. She has worked with victims of domestic violence and sexual assault survivors, with active and recently retired military personnel, and with high school students. She has also kept a private practice where she has been able to work with all ages and a variety of issues. As she has worked with clients throughout the years, she has found that, regardless of age, healthy relationships and boundary setting are typically common goals for clients as we all strive to live a healthy, productive life. Julie allows the client to lead the session while she helps keep it focused on the path toward healing and healthy life goals. Some of the therapies Julie uses include person-centered, Adlerian, cognitive behavioral, and mindfulness.
Julie understands that reaching out for counseling can be a scary time for clients. But she would like you to know that you have nothing to fear from her. Counseling with Julie is a safe space where all emotions are welcome, she will not judge you for your thoughts, actions, or emotions! Julie has been told that she is a very down-to-earth counselor, and she is excited to meet you and help you begin your journey on the path to a healthier and more joyful life.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Family therapy helps families resolve conflicts and strengthen their relationships. It is led by qualified mental health professionals like psychologists, licensed professional counselors (LPCs), and licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) who have extensive training in family dynamics and group communication.
Thriveworks family therapists in Amarillo, TX usually begin by asking what everyone’s goals are for family counseling. Family members may need help with very specific issues or with general relationship functioning. But there are three main purposes in family counseling: to educate, to counsel, and to strengthen. Thriveworks also offers online family therapy and in-person services, so you may all meet in an office together or join a video call from your home depending on everyone’s location and availability.
The most effective form of Family therapy will often depend on the family itself, as there are many types of family therapy for therapists to use as they see fit in order to best meet the needs of their clients. However, one of the most commonly used types of family therapy is structural family therapy (SFT). SFT focuses specifically on family dynamics and interactions, looking at how they shape the relationships and structure present in the family. It can be effectively used to treat a variety of concerns.
This answer often looks different to each family that starts family therapy. However, some signs that your family might need to consider family counseling include frequent fights or misunderstandings, constant tension, experiencing loss, behavioral issues, marital issues, divorce, and blended family issues, among others.
In family therapy, therapists will often start by asking questions and assessing individual and family dynamics. From there, they may employ therapeutic techniques such as structured family therapy, CBT, strategic family therapy, and more depending on the present concerns and conflicts. From there, a therapist will work to open lines of communication between family members and facilitate emotional healing and growth.
Family therapy can be incredibly successful, with some studies reporting a success rate of almost 90% for improving participants’ emotional and mental health, and around 66% for improving their physical health.
Thriveworks therapists in Amarillo, TX offer both online family therapy and in-person family therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Family therapy is usually short term and solution-focused, with most families accomplishing their goals in 12 sessions or fewer. However, it can also last for longer if the probles at hand are more complex — and that’s okay, too.
Family systems encounter different challenges, from constant bickering to school bullying. To strengthen your family’s relationship and resolve its problems, set up an appointment with a counselor or therapist at Thriveworks in Amarillo, TX. No matter what issue your family is going through, our family therapists can use their expertise to create long-term solutions that work for everyone involved. Reach out today for help.
The families on TV sitcoms often resolve problems in a single episode with lighthearted jabs and quick chats. Real-life families, however, often have to take different, more long-term approaches to resolve behavioral problems, miscommunication, and other concerns that come up from time to time.
Families pursue counseling for different reasons. But some of the most common reasons to seek the help of a mental health professional include:
Strong family relationships take time, commitment, and hard work. Counselors, therapists, psychologists, and the other licensed professionals at Thriveworks can offer the resources you need to continue to grow together.
Therapy is designed to help you work through relationship issues in a respectful, civil manner. To help you and your family reach your relationship goals, your provider might try one or more forms of therapy, such as:
Your therapist may use these and other techniques to address your family’s unique concerns. Regardless of which techniques are used, you and your loved ones will receive expert care in the hands of your provider. To get started, please call us to schedule a session with a therapist or counselor at Thriveworks in Amarillo, TX.
For most of us, our family members are the first people we see in the morning and the last people we see at night. Because we spend so much time with our caregivers, siblings, and other relatives, our interactions can sometimes become soured by miscommunication or disagreements. But no matter what challenge you face, a family therapist can help you and your family get back on the right track.
At Thriveworks, our counselors and therapists offer online sessions via video chat and weekend and evening appointment times to accommodate different schedules. We offer a generous cancellation policy, accept various insurance policies, and can often accommodate same-week appointments for new clients.
Family relationships are important. If you and your family are undergoing problems or want to improve your relationship, please contact Thriveworks in Amarillo, TX to get started today.
