About Natalie
She combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with somatic methods and trauma-focused techniques. In addition, her practice integrates art therapy and equine assisted mental health to offer different ways for people to express and process difficult experiences. These options let clients use creativity, movement, and interactions with horses to access feelings that are hard to name.
Natalie describes cognitive approaches as a way to notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns. She uses those methods to help people tackle current problems and shift behaviors that keep them stuck. Somatic and trauma-focused work add attention to the body and to how past events are held in physical responses.
She frames therapy as a chance to examine beliefs and emotions that keep someone feeling stuck. Natalie aims to offer clear perspectives and practical skills so people can make meaningful changes. Sessions focus on concrete steps and new ways of approaching situations that feel overwhelming.
Her practice is based in Montana and draws on 12 years of clinical experience. People who want to begin are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to therapist availability.
How Natalie Uses CBT, Somatic, and Trauma-Focused Methods Online
Natalie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT focuses on the here-and-now and offers concrete exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.She also draws on somatic approaches that pay attention to the body's responses. Somatic work helps people recognize physical patterns tied to stress or trauma and practice simple bodily methods to calm or regulate those responses.
Trauma-focused therapy in her practice centers on safely processing past events and their ongoing effects. That work aims to slowly reduce the ways trauma reactions interfere with daily life, using paced techniques that respect each person's limits.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist and client talk about goals, try methods, and adjust the plan together. Natalie emphasizes practical feedback so the work stays aligned with what the person needs.
