I enjoy working with adults across the lifespan who are seeking to deepen their understanding of themselves, improve their mental health, and make meaningful changes in their lives. My clients often face challenges including anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, ADHD, relationship issues, and stress from academic or professional environments. I have a particular affinity for supporting Gen Z and Millennial individuals, as well as those within the LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse communities.
My practice is dedicated to creating a safe, supportive space where clients can openly share and explore their concerns without fear of judgment. I aim to improve the health and well-being of my clients by providing comprehensive, compassionate, and evidence-based mental health care. By integrating medications with complementary therapies, and considering the intersection of physical and mental health, I tailor treatment plans to each individual’s unique needs. I look forward to supporting your journey!
“My first session with Natalie was great! We were quickly able to build patient/provider rapport and I look forward to meeting with her for my next session!”
Utilizing basic psychotherapy, I meet clients at their level of need, helping to set and achieve practical goals for treatment. In most cases, I work with your current therapist to provide medication management but also love to utilize more holistic approaches to care. While medication management is my niche, I also love to work with clients who are open to complimentary therapy.
I am a doctorate prepared psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with experience working in forensics, long term care and both inpatient and outpatient mental healthcare. Treatment areas include severe and persistent mental illnesses (SPMIs), anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders and personality disorders.
Humans are complex, so beyond medication management, you can expect to learn more about stress management and coping, nutrition, sleep hygiene, trauma, comorbid disorders and family structure/dynamics.
I invite you to take the next steps towards your mental wellbeing.

“For some reason I thought I had an appointment with Neurologist Dr. Patel. His qualifications were impressive on the website. When I arrived I was told that Dr. Patel was in New York not in Boca Raton. I was told that I would see Sharit Sigalit. I asked if she was a neurologist and was told yes. I explained to Dr. Sigalit that my right hand occasionally shakes involuntarily. I was given nerve tests and a cap on my head test. I was then told I had to get a Brain DaTscan never being told what the current tests I took revealed or what the Brain DaTscan was for. When I came home I looked up Dr. Shavit was not a neurologist but a nurse. I check with Rayus who was recommended to do the Brain DaTscan and was told it involved at least 40 minutes flat on my back. I explained that if I am in that position it is extremely painful for me and I could not stay still as required so I do not want to take it unless I can be in a sitting position. The representative said that was the only way I could do it. Since I have done research and learned the result would not be certain. So I will not take the test.
I have an appointment with the nurse for April 13th at 1:30 pm which now I wish to cancel. I also request that the results of the tests done be sent to me..
