I'm a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) and Registered Dance/Movement Therapist (R-DMT) providing virtual psychotherapy for adolescents and adults throughout New York. Prior to private practice, I supported children, adolescents, and adults across inpatient, outpatient, foster care, and community mental health settings. These experiences became the bedrock of my clinical thinking and continue to inform my work today.
As a dance/movement therapist, I understand the body as an integral part of emotional experience. My work is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy and informed by my ongoing interest and training in psychoanalysis. I am EMDR trained, which, together with my understanding of the body, informs how I conceptualize and work with trauma.
About Natalie
You may find yourself questioning why certain patterns continue to repeat, wondering why you respond to situations the way you do, or having experiences or emotions that feel difficult to make sense of. You may have a lot to say, or find it difficult to put your experience into words. I welcome both, and we can begin wherever you are. Together, we’ll approach your experience with curiosity and work to understand it more fully.
I work with adolescents and adults with a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, self-esteem, perfectionism, life transitions, and patterns that can be difficult to understand or change.
I approach therapy with compassion and curiosity, meeting you where you are and following what feels important to you, knowing that this may shift and change over time. Rather than approaching therapy as a process of fixing, I see it as an opportunity for exploration. Together we’ll be curious about your inner world, allowing insights to emerge and creating space for different ways of relating to yourself and your experience.
We’ll do this by paying attention not only to what comes up in words, but also to what you experience in your body, helping to bridge what you think with how you feel.
Because every person's story is unique, I tailor therapy to your individual needs and work collaboratively with you at a pace that feels thoughtful and responsive to your experience. Above all, I hope to create a space that feels meaningful to you, where you feel supported, understood, and able to approach yourself with greater curiosity and self-compassion.
