About Natalie
With 15 years of experience as an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), she focuses on practical steps and steady support. Sessions emphasize understanding patterns in relationships and feelings, and testing small changes that can ease daily struggles. Natalie encourages clients to name what matters most and set realistic goals to get there.
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape current relationships. She also uses client-centered listening to follow what each person notices is important. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try alternative ways of thinking and acting.
Natalie works with people dealing with caregiving stress, chronic illness or disability, grief, and challenges tied to family of origin. She also supports those facing intimacy-related issues, abandonment concerns, and compassion fatigue. The work often includes improving communication and rebuilding trust in relationships.
People can expect a supportive, collaborative style that balances practical tools with emotional understanding. Natalie aims to help clients take small, manageable steps toward clearer thinking, better connections, and a steadier daily life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape current relationships. It helps people understand patterns in closeness and distance and supports rebuilding trust in relationships through new, safer interactions. Client-Centered Therapy centers on careful listening and following what matters most to the client. This approach helps people clarify goals and feel supported as they make changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavior changes. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or motivation problems.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Natalie will work with clients to decide which combination of methods fits best for their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can shift as needs change during treatment.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to schedule sessions around work or caregiving duties, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to continue work during life transitions, while trying different strategies learned in sessions in the context of everyday life.
