Hi. I'm Dr. Natalia. I am here to listen and encourage young adult women (ages 18-35) on your journey towards improved mental health. You can click the link to book a consultation with me. Looking forward to meeting you.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I offer a relational, strengths-based, and holistic approach to therapy listening to your needs and coming up with a plan together to meet them.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I want to be clear, honest, and transparent with you. We would meet for a 15-minute free consultation where I will get to know what you are looking for in therapy and you will know more about my approach to treatment. After this consultation, if you would like to do therapy with me, we would book an intake session and discuss what treatment would look like tailored for you.
