She brings over 20 years’ experience across a range of settings, including trauma recovery, youth support, family dynamics, homelessness, return-to-work programs, and supporting people who have experienced abuse. ​ Natalie’s work is trauma-informed and grounded in creating a calm, compassionate space where you can slow things down, make sense of what’s been happening, and build practical strategies that fit day-to-day life. She has specialised training in EMDR, CBT, ACT and DBT, and has a strong focus on supporting PTSD, anxiety, and depression. ​ Natalie has a particular interest in working with neurodivergent children and adolescents, including autistic young people and those with ADHD/ADD. Her approach is neuroaffirming and tailored, supporting young people (and families) with overwhelm, emotional regulation, school stress, social fatigue, and confidence. ​ Natalie is inclusive and affirming of LGBTQIA+ clients. She is also able to provide therapeutic support under the NDIS framework (with current NDIS worker screening and registration). ​ Warm, skilled, and deeply committed, Natalie offers therapy that is respectful, collaborative, and focused on meaningful change. ​ If you'd like to book an appointment, click the button below.
