Hi there! Welcome! I'm Natalie.

I am an independently licensed therapist practicing in Seattle. I did my internship in community mental health in 2020, then went on to work as a DBT therapist in partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs seeing individuals and teaching a variety of groups. This has included treatment of acute mental illness, substance use, and eating disorders. I started my private practice in 2023.

As of 2025, I have supported the online Seattle University Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program as an adjunct faculty member. Previous clinical work include roles as a psychometrist doing neuropsychological testing (2017-19) and as a clinical research coordinator on an NIH grant at the University of Washington (2019-21). I engage in advocacy and volunteer work in my professional and personal time.

I am encouraging, warm, and balance firmness with humor when working with clients. I absolutely love being a therapist. Having experienced my own struggles with mental illness, including being in recovery from panic disorder, is a huge part of my drive to reduce needless suffering in peoples' lives. This said, I don't shy away from saying: plenty of life's pains are unavoidable- we simply need to find ways to manage and make meaning, regardless.

I truly believe things can be different for you, even when you're not sure- there was a time I doubted mental wellbeing was possible for me, yet here I am. I've been part of the recovery journey for many, and it's an honor to say it's my life's work.
