Stress is a normal part of our human experience, but its not all of it. Life’s challenges can make us feel disconnected, overwhelmed, lost and struggling with unhelpful and difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be easy to get stuck and although moving forward is difficult, you don’t need to do it alone. Natalia's training and experience include working with adults (18+) in post-secondary, private, residential and outpatient hospital settings, with a wide variety of concerns including anxiety disorders/anxiety, mood, stress, grief & life transitions.

My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, PTSD and CPTSD, personality disorders, psychological abuse and relationship issues. During the sessions you'll find understanding, an ultimate acceptance and security to express your genuine concerns at a very deep psychological level. You will learn how to identify and use your resourcefulness to make new steps. You will learn how to manage your emotions and set and meet goals without being stressed. Therapy will allow you to free yourself from painful emotions, disturbing thoughts and destructive behaviour and enjoy your precious life.

Do you procrastinate and have difficulties focusing? Have you experienced losses or failures that have impacted your confidence and sense of self. If you are interested in self-exploration, coping better, managing anxiety, perfectionism, trauma, ADHD or depression, we can help.
