Hi, I’m Natalie, the therapist at East Durham Counselling. I work with adults and young people in private practice. I’m trained in integrative counselling, which means I have lots of techniques to choose from when deciding what will help my clients the most; I draw from person-centred, psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural therapies depending on the presenting issues and client's needs. I have experience of working with autism, ADHD, abuse, anxiety, bereavement, depression, domestic violence, eating disorders, OCD, PTSD, relationship issues, self-harm, stress, trauma and dissociation.
I specialise in neurodiversity and I have additional training in autism, ADHD, and neuroscience. I offer a variety of methods of counselling and coaching, including online and telephone sessions, face to face counselling in our lovely therapy room, and a walk and talk option for those who might not feel comfortable in a traditional counselling environment.
The best therapy is always built on the foundation of a genuine, honest relationship, and it’s important that a counsellor and client are the right fit for each other. I seek to make my clients as comfortable as possible. For that reason, I offer a free 20 minute telephone consultation, with no obligation to book a session.
Call or Natalie Holmes now for a free 15 minute consultation - 0191 743 9237
