Hi, I’m Natalie. I am a trauma-informed narrative therapist offering individual counselling to my community, which includes you! I welcome the privilege of hearing your story and supporting you in your path towards wellness, whatever that means to you. I have experience in working in:
- Addictions
- Anxiety
- Chronic Illnesses
- Depression
- Developmental Trauma
- Grief and Loss
- Life Transitions
- Shame and Guilt
- Social Injustice
I approach counselling from a holistic standpoint. Coming from the performing arts worlds, I learned early on that the body and the mind are important vessels for greater emotional expression, stress reduction, and mental health. I also know that meeting with a counsellor for the first time can be intimidating. Because of this, I strive to create a space where you can feel safe, where your autonomy is respected, and where the focus is on your goals. I believe all people are owed the right to their dignity, choice, and autonomy. This extends into the therapy room, where “advice” isn’t given, but your strengths, capabilities, and inherent wisdom are explored and strengthened in collaboration with my knowledge and experience. I view our partnership as a meeting of two experts: you, as the expert on what it is like to be you, and me, as someone who can offer tools that have been shown to help people.
I believe that part of counselling involves reclaiming parts of ourselves that have been historically and continuously marginalized. As a narrative therapist, I strive to uncover which stories about your identity might be getting in the way of you feeling more fulfilled. I am passionate about exploring how you would like to live your life story in more alignment with your hopes, values, and preferences. I invite you to step towards greater compassion for yourself while facing your individual and collective pain. I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you as you reclaim your power, worth, and healing.
