Meet Natalie
I am a psychotherapist with a passion for supporting people through difficult transitions in their lives. This can come in a variety of forms whether it be adjusting to a new job, becoming a first-time parent, being diagnosed with a serious illness, as well as a range of other things. Having worked in a hospital setting for many years, I have special expertise not only with chronic illness and also changing relationships. My goal is to help you gain a better understanding of your feelings, mood, and behaviors throughout these transitions, and in turn, help you to better manage and cope. Therapy can also be a place to explore strategies for regaining control and moving forward. Because I have worked with individuals at all life stages, I have been able to develop a practice that tailors to each person's wishes and needs. I combine many therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic, Strengths-Based, and meaning-centered work to ensure the right fit for each person. I greatly look forward to our work together.
My goal is to help you gain a better understanding of your feelings, mood, and behaviors throughout these transitions, and in turn, help you to better manage and cope.
