Hi, Natalie here! I am honored that you are considering therapy and have stopped by my page. I primarily serve clients ages 3 into early adulthood (age 25) who are challenged by critical life transitions and/or unresolved trauma that leads to unmanageable feelings and behaviors. Consequently, I also serve those in helping professions (e.g., education, medicine, mental health, spiritual) to combat burnout/compassion fatigue and related issues. Each client who seeks help desires a break from the overwhelming feelings that cause them to feel emotionally unwell. Thank you for letting me be part of your journey.
Modalities used in my practice include psychodynamic, TB-CBT, and EMDR, to name a few. Using a highly relational and client-centered approach, I provide clinical guidance as we walk the life path together. I offer them the opportunity to be truly heard and valued while providing them space to courageously process their issues.
It takes amazing strength and courage to recognize the need to accept help. I am honored to be part of your journey. Healing comes with time and hard work and I commend your desire to embrace both. I am here to ensure that you do not walk the road to wellness alone. I hope to provide you with support, encouragement and a safe space to become your best self.
