Background and approach
In sessions she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thinking and change unhelpful patterns. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, manageable goals and build on what already works for each person. She has experience supporting people through aging and geriatric issues, isolation and loneliness, and questions about life purpose.
She also works with young adult issues and mood disorders, helping clients find steps forward when motivation or meaning feels lost. Natalie holds a master’s degree and the LCSW credential, and she practices in California. Her style is warm and direct, with an emphasis on short-term strategies and ongoing support.
She helps people develop coping skills they can use between sessions.
Practical CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and change the behaviors that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress because it teaches clear steps to reduce worry and improve daily routines. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on small, achievable goals and uses what already works in a person’s life to build momentum toward change.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, then try methods that fit that person’s needs. Adjustments are made over time so the plan stays practical and aligned with what the client wants to achieve.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can suit short check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or other daily demands while still working on anxiety, grief, and life transitions.
