My Name is Natalie.

I am qualified in person centred therapy and also have insights and skills from a variety of other training programs such as mindfulness and compassionate inquiry. 

I always wanted to be a therapist- I noticed from a young age just how much pain everybody seemed to be in and i felt like i could understand each persons perspective- this was a nightmare! until i became a therapist. Now i cherish that. 

I am a big believer in the idea that pain and trauma is passed on through generations, i have come to this conclusion through my personal experiences, my professional observations and through my trainings. It saddens me to see that so many people are in so much pain and so often it is supressed and then manifests in ways that feel out of their control. I want to help people take back control, I want to help people find their inner strength and courage, I want to challenge the ideas we have about what strength is.

I too am a human being and this is my greatest treasure as a therapist. Relationship is the foundation of our work- i will bring to our therapeutic relationship my humanity, my kindness, my curiosity, my compassion, my creativity and care.
