I am a relational and systems-oriented therapist who works with individuals, couples, and families. My work focuses on helping people understand the patterns that shape how they relate to others and to themselves. I believe the relationship we develop with ourselves is foundational, and that many experiences such as anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm,
and disconnection are rooted in adaptations that once served an important purpose.
I work with thoughtful, capable individuals who are ready to better understand themselves andcreate meaningful change. Together, we explore the emotional, relational, and contextual factors influencing your present experience, and work toward greater clarity, stability, and self-
trust.
I specialize in couples and family work, supporting clients in strengthening communication, rebuilding trust, and navigating relational challenges with greater understanding. I also work with individuals seeking to address anxiety, perfectionism, identity questions, and life
transitions, or who want to develop a more grounded and supportive relationship with themselves.
My approach integrates Emotion-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. I offer a steady, respectful space where meaningful insight and lasting change can occur.

My name is Natalia and I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) trauma therapist in New York. I specialize in working with survivors of domestic or intimate partner violence and individuals navigating recovery from substance use disorder/addiction. My personal connections to the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ community have fueled my ability and ambition to create an encouraging and empathetic healing space for my clients. During my course of study, I’ve expanded my clinical skills and completed training programs in multiple modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR).

To quote one of my favorite authors:

“If you are uncomfortable—in deep pain, angry, yearning, confused —you don’t have a problem, you have a life. Being human is not hard because you’re doing it wrong, it’s hard because you’re doing it right. You will never change the fact that being human is hard, so you must change your idea that it was ever supposed to be easy.” – Glennon Doyle

I work to create a safe therapeutic environment to support you in honoring your past, living in the present, and imagining a more empowered future. I'm motivated to work with you on any current or long standingchallenge you’re experiencing at a pace you're comfortable with. Life was never supposed to be easy, and I applaud you in taking this next step. I look forward to being on your team and a source of support for you through your journey.

I enjoy working with adults, teens, families, and groups. I approach clients from a psychodynamic perspective influenced by existential psychotherapy and family systems. I have a foundational training in DBT and, depending on the client’s needs, will teach concrete skills to strengthen emotion regulation, decrease anxious and depressive symptoms, increase resilience and distress tolerance, improve communication, and strengthen boundaries in relationships.

My style is collaborative and dynamic; I enjoy working together to understand what clients want from therapy, and how best to achieve their goals. I listen to/ observe carefully what is communicated during session, and I ask a lot of questions to encourage exploration and self-reflection. I balance concepts of self- acceptance and change, and aim to instill the belief that real change is possible and within the client's power.

I admire the courage it takes to come to therapy and consider it an honor to work with clients in their most vulnerable areas. I create a warm, collaborative, responsive, and safe environment in which clients can express whatever they want without fear of judgement.

As a Nigerian immigrant and Mental Health Counselor, I believe healing happens in community. I provide a warm, collaborative space where clients feel supported as they navigate life's challenges.

My approach is person-centered and culturally responsive, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), psychodynamic principles, and Motivational Interviewing. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, trauma, relationship concerns, and identity-related challenges.

I have a special interest in supporting Black individuals across the diaspora, immigrants, and multicultural communities navigating cultural identity, family dynamics, and religious trauma. My goal is to help clients build resilience, deepen self-understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change.

As an Indian American clinician from a large immigrant family, I understand the complexity of navigating multiple identities and the unique mental health challenges faced by individuals with diverse backgrounds, both culturally and beyond. I also recognize the stigma around seeking support in our communities and the strength it takes to reach out.

In my work, I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and attachment-related challenges. Whether you're exploring relationship dynamics, wrestling with guilt, moving through life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, I offer a space where you can feel safe, seen, and respected. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each person’s individual needs, drawing from modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy, and more.

Therapy is a space where you can come as you are. I strive to create a warm, respectful, and nonjudgmental environment where healing and growth are possible. Cultivating joy in troubling times may seem tough, but is not impossible. If any of this resonates with you, I’d be honored to support you on your path.
