Calling all neurodivergent writers, musicians, artists, dancers, and creatives of any kind looking for emotional support, healing, or help navigating life challenges and transitions.

There is a safe space for you at Heal ATL. As your therapist, I will gently guide your gaze toward the light of worthiness you have embodied since birth. Therapy can empower you to shape the narrative you tell yourself about who you are and what holds meaning in your life.

As an LMSW, I believe in the inherent dignity and worth of every person which allows me to engage with clients from all backgrounds. That being said, I specialize as a domestic violence survivor advocate and I enjoy working with survivors and perpetrators of gender-based and intimate partner violence as well as anyone who may want to learn more about healthy relationship and consent practices. As a queer, non-binary person, I also enjoy working with LGBTQ+ clients as they work on examining and understanding their identities.

Anxiety and trauma can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. I support women and LGBTQIA+ folks who are navigating anxiety, trauma, and the lasting effects of stress. My work is grounded in somatic therapy, an approach that focuses on how experiences live in the body and nervous system, not just in our thoughts. We will work together to build internal safety so your nervous system can begin to release patterns of overwhelm and protection that no longer serve you. In our work, we gently support emotional processing while helping your nervous system find more balance and regulation.

Sometimes life is just hard, you are going along, and everything is fine, when, suddenly, wham!...everything changes, and leaves you asking, "now what?" You were taught how to do Algebra, but not how to deal with the situation you find yourself in. For me, therapy is about finding the right tools for you so that you can, in the healthiest way possible, thrive in the hardest times. I want you to know that you are amazing, and infinitely capable, and that sometimes you just need a little bit of help learning how to deal with life's curve balls.

Therapeutic fit is typically the most important factor for therapy success. So instead of going for any hooks or marketing gimmicks, I’ll describe myself and my style. I’m from Georgia, been in recovery for 10 years, an avid reader and sports watcher, a new dad, and have an awesome dog (see my website for proof). I’m not presumptuous that I know what’s best for anyone. I will be both kind but also straightforward; honesty in a kind way is more important than approval. I love using metaphors, media references, and humor in sessions. I strive to be flexible while also remaining authentic, empathetic, and solution-focused.

I am so happy you are here. Bios can be so stale, but hopefully this one will paint a colorful picture of who I am and what to expect in a session with me. Being a therapist is literally so cool and rewarding. Each day I have the opportunity to offer at least two things – to help you feel understood and less alone. No matter where you are in your life, I want to meet you there. I strive to provide a safe environment for clients from different backgrounds, cultures, sexual identities, gender identities or expression.

Do you feel like you are the only person in your family, work environment or friend circle who everybody comes to for answers, but have no one to reciprocate? Do you struggle with anxiety, depressed mood challenges, or everyday life situations are consuming the ability to function in all aspects of life? Do you feel exhausted, at your wit’s end or complacent by where you are in your relationships, profession or out of sorts just getting through the day’s expectations, while feeling trapped in a dark tunnel with no glimmer of light? Do you envision a life that propels you forward with a positive outlook to get beyond the despair?

I love helping people and I am so excited for you that you are considering engaging in services! I believe in an integrative approach to therapy which means focusing on the whole person rather than one problematic behavior which is most often only a symptom of underlying issues. In order to most effectively address your emotional or mental well-being we must also address your physical, biological, social, and psychological functioning. If you are ready to make changes to allow you to more fully enjoy your life then I am eager to assist you towards your goals.

Specializing in trauma therapy has been focus of much of my career, but I've also had the privilege of supporting clients through stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem challenges, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.
I believe that humor and warmth are vital to connection in therapy and are often necessary when dealing with such serious topics as trauma, depression and anxiety. Utilizing an evidence-based treatment called Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I work with clients experiencing symptoms that arise as a result of trauma, abuse, and/or neglect.

no waitlist! Hi, I’m Natasha, a South Asian American therapist specializing in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, career burnout, "Eldest Daughter Syndrome," and life transitions (big & small). I have a passion for identity work and overcoming anxiety using ERP & EMDR. I find it fulfilling to assist patients as they navigate discomfort and overcome obstacles, helping them lead a life aligned with their values. I work best with individuals ready to take meaningful steps toward healing & growth. You don’t need to have everything figured out—therapy is a process—but a willingness to commit will be imperative for healing.
