Hi, my name is Natalie Potyagova and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been working with individuals, couples, and families for over 12 years. I use different theoretical approaches during my sessions because I believe that not everything can be fixed using the same approach. Over the years, I found that Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy had been the most efficient when working with individuals and couples.

Living life means dealing with challenging times. The good thing is that you don't have to face these challenging times alone. Everyone can use a supportive ear from time to time. Together we can cultivate a better tomorrow utilizing skills and techniques learned through therapy. Managing emotions is a skill just like learning to read or knowing how to do math. You just have to start by taking the first step. Sometimes the smallest steps in the right direction end up being the biggest steps of your life.

I specialize in working with first responders and their families. I have been married to a retired Sheriff's Sergeant for 30 years and have experienced all that comes with it, from shift work and parenting on opposite schedules to getting the call that he was injured and rushing to the hospital. I have extensive training in trauma and Critical Incident Stress Management as well as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) all of which help me understand the impact the job has on the first responder as well as the family and the tools that will help reduce the effects for both.

My ideal client feels hopeless, and has been in therapy for years without success. They are depressed, anxious, have problems with relationships, or have habits that get in the way of a happy life. They have tried Everything and Nothing works. They are motivated to do what it takes find relief, including daily homework. They will agree to work within the TEAM framework to target self-defeating beliefs and overcome them. I have continued to hone my skills in TEAM and have attended numerous trainings over the past years to target specific diagnoses and to address common treatment failures. -Kim Sullivan

As a clinical psychologist, my fundamental principle from the start is how can we do our best work as a team to help you finish your journey and go on unencumbered from what brought you to my office in the first place. I do my best to work myself out of a job and it is my passion, privilege and honor to do so! I believe creation of safety and trust is the foundation of any successful therapeutic journey.

Making the decision to talk to someone about your "problems" can be very scary and anxiety producing. What people often don't realize is that it is a very courageous step toward a more fulfilling life. I encourage my client to not only talk about their "problems" but to talk about what they do that "works". I believe that unlocking your true potential will help you to make choices that are different.

My approach tends to be cognitive behavioral in nature and I use distress tolerance techniques (DBT). I like to tailor my approach to an individual’s goals & particular needs. What that means is that I like to collaborate with a client to find active steps to take to better one’s quality of life. It is solution-focused, and brief in nature. I believe that self-care and mindfulness are essential tools for quality of life, yet we aren’t always taught how to do that for ourselves. My clients say that I am direct, yet compassionate, and that they feel validated & empowered to make changes in their lives.
