About Natalia
She focuses on practical concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following a person’s priorities, so online sessions are used to let the client set goals and pace. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through parenting stress, grief, or life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete tools to change them. In remote sessions, CBT work often includes tracking patterns, practicing new behaviors between meetings, and reviewing what helped or didn’t help.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, provides practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. This can be useful for anger, intense grief, or mood swings, and skills are practiced in short exercises and real-life homework.
Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify priorities and pick methods that match their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into work or family schedules, reduce travel time, and let people follow up more regularly with shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals use these practical benefits to help therapy fit everyday life.
