I believe one of the most important parts of the counseling process is to develop a trusting caring relationship. With this relationship, much can be gained from the counseling sessions. I have worked well with individuals and families who have emotional pain. For many clients, helping them understand what creates such emotional pain, gaining insights puts them on a path for a more fulfilling life. In my practice I work with individuals who have sadness, depression, loss, relationship difficulties, family difficulties, sexual challenges and sexual abuse. My mission in therapy is to respect each client, and walk with them at their healing pace, I believe if we walk together on this healing journey life will be better.

Life can be difficult, and it’s not always easy to work through the obstacles we face without support. Talking to a friend may be helpful, but it’s not the same as therapy. Perhaps you’re struggling with anxiety, relationship difficulties, maybe an addiction, a loss, or even trauma. Providing virtual therapy for both NJ and PA clientele, I offer a safe space & uninterrupted time to listen, support and provide feeedback, guidance.

It is my belief that we all deserve the opportunity to create a space to identify and share who we are and how we feel. Through a relational approach, my aim is to meet people where they are and work towards greater clarity and freedom from the pain and fear we have experienced. I believe in the power of relationship, especially the one we have with ourselves, to help us heal, grow, and discover how to be intentional about the kind of life we want to live. I approach the work with compassion and an open heart, inviting all parts of ourselves to be known and understood.

Hi, I’m Natalie. I’m a therapist for those who are looking to process life happenings while building a more nuanced relationship with themselves. Maybe you already consider yourself a fairly introspective person and would like to build upon this. Or, nothing major is “wrong”, though you appreciate having a supportive space to navigate life & process your thoughts and feelings. Or, you understand the nuances of food and body and how they pop up for you now, and would like a therapist who also has an understanding of this part of your story.

I feel that living life as freely and fully as we are meant to do incorporates both our successes and our failures. We all have ways that we shine and places where we could improve. Our relationship to life is key to healthy passionate living. Symptoms of anxiety, addiction, depression, and confusion can be used to make needed course corrections to restore the balance of life.

Each person deserves to have an environment where they can feel secure, validated and free to be who they are without worry of judgement. Having access to an encouraging environment can promote a journey towards a healthier perspective on life, along with increased feelings of peace and satisfaction. My approach to treatment is geared towards those who can use support in modifying negative thinking patterns, feelings of uneasiness, challenges in acknowledging personal strengths, difficulty with healthy boundary setting, ongoing or acute life challenges and relationship difficulties.
