Natalie Osoria, is a Licensed Clinical Social worker passionate about empowering her clients to overcome life’s challenges and achieve the goals they envision for themselves. Natalie has extensive experience working with clients from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds from various treatment settings, including inpatient residential and outpatient mental healthcare. She works with adults (ages 18 and up) and specializes in issues such as anxiety, depression, addictions, substance use, relationship issues, and life transitions.

I specialize in Substance Use, Anxiety, & Grief. Life can feel overwhelming at times, and it's okay to seek support. Whether you're navigating through difficult emotions, facing challenges in relationships, or simply need someone to listen, know that you're not alone. My ideal client is someone who wants to begin their treatment journey. They might be nervous or scared to begin, but they have made their first step to at least try.

My ideal client is seeking therapy to become the best version of themselves. They would be committed to treatment and be willing to put in the work in and outside of therapy.

At various times throughout life one may find themselves out of alignment, facing challenges, feeling off and not quite themself. I can assist you in identifying the underlying defenses, core beliefs, and patterns of behavior that hold you back; leaving you feeling stuck and creating challenges. In my role I offer a safe, supportive, non judgmental space to express what has been held in and discover inner strength to implement realistic positive change.

I am passionate about empowering individuals to overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. I am committed to forming strong, trusting relationships with clients, believing that the therapeutic alliance is at the heart of treatment. I believe in working together to create meaningful change across all areas: physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and social.

I am a counselor with over 25 years experience in the field of mental health/substance use treatment. I am comfortable with working with those struggling with anxiety, depression, problematic drug & alcohol use, relationship issues, and adjustments to challenging life events. I see you as the expert of your own lives. So, I am here to help you navigate through these challenging times.

My ideal client is one with motivation for self-care, openness to change, and a desire to learn more about themselves and others. My ideal population consists of adults with a mental health diagnosis of anxiety, depression, PTSD, substance use disorder, and other increasingly complex diagnoses. However, I am also devoted to assisting those seeking help without a defined diagnosis and who are beginning therapy without a clear vision of treatment needs. I welcome working with anyone who may benefit from my skillset who is dealing with life’s many challenges and searching for a clearer definition and understanding of their stressors.

Welcome!! My goal is to help support you in living a fulfilling life and build on your inherit strengths. My experience includes working with those who suffer from substance use issues, personal growth and development, and career counseling. I specialize in helping those suffering from anxiety & depression, grief, self-esteem issues, vocational concerns, and marital and relational conflict. I can help you to confront things that have remained unprocessed or new experiences which have brought forth stress or pain. Whether you are struggling from an acute crisis or recent stress, I can help you to better navigate the waters.

Are you struggling with difficult life transitions, depression, & anxiety? I enjoy working with clients who feel motivated to take that first step of exploring reasons why they are feeling unhappy or dissatisfied with their lives right now. I work with clients who want to gain insight & learn tangible skills that they can practice outside of the therapeutic sessions to change their lives for the better. My role as a Licensed Professional Counselor is to help individuals gain insight and feel empowered to create positive change in their lives. I offer a collaborative approach to create a unique treatment plan tailored to your needs.

I aim to create a safe environment in which you can begin to feel comfortable navigating life’s stressors and successes. I recognize that each person is unique and therefore their counseling process should be as well. Whether your concerns started in these recent years, or have been around long before that, I’m here to listen and to help figure out a way to move forward.

When people feel weighed down by the heaviness that seems to consume them, providing a sense of space and reconstruction that allows a shift to occur is vital. In that shift, I hope to provide a supportive environment where they will feel that weight move and become the foundation on which they can rebuild their life. This heaviness is a unilateral condition experienced by all human beings. The secret is to create a skillset that permits the transition from weight being carried to weight being conquered. In my opinion, there is no ideal client, however, there is a blueprint of individual success for everyone.
