Welcome to a little about me.

I’m Natalie, and I’m an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker. I consider myself a warm and empathetic person, with a genuine compassion for others. My therapeutic style is person-centred and is grounded in evidence-based practices. I recognise that everyone’s journey is unique, and I’m here to provide a safe, non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences. I’ve been fortunate to work with individuals, families and young people who are navigating various mental health challenges.

At its core, therapy is about guiding people back to themselves, fostering healing, growth, and ability to thrive. I see it as a privilege and a meaningful responsibility to accompany individuals on their recovery. I also enjoy bringing in elements of lightness, ease, and humour during sessions.

My therapeutic approach draws from an array of frameworks, including Attachment Theory, Person-Centred Therapy, Trauma-Informed Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). My experience spans both inpatient and clinical community care settings, helping to shape my understanding and skills of recovery and relapse prevention, psychosocial intervention, and knowledge of external referral pathways to other specialist organisations.

Engaging in therapy provides a chance to clarify your needs, develop helpful resources and practical skills, celebrate your strengths, and feel both supported and empowered as you move forward. I understand that starting therapy can feel daunting and even a bit overwhelming, but my goal is to create a comfortable, safe, and supportive environment for you.

I look forward to meeting you.
