How I can help you

I recently completed 8 months of therapy with Natalie after suffering with worsening anxiety, stress & perfectionism for years. Natalie is knowledgeable, empathetic and kind - I immediately felt at ease each session. I felt like I was making progress each week and overall she helped me achieve all my goals and more, I don't even remember the last time I was anxious! Working with her has completely changed my life and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

Before therapy I was anxious most days to the point of feeling sick. I was very focused on work and my emotions were highly tied to work. My perfectionist behaviours were fuelling the situation. After therapy, I don't remember the last time I was anxious! My whole mindset has transformed. I feel so balanced across my life. I no longer have an unhealthy attachment to work and I'm able to recognise and handle my perfectionist behaviours to ensure they serve me and don't hinder me.

I highly recommend therapy with Natalie. She is warm, compassionate, knowledgeable and professional. Natalie went at my pace, she was encouraging, genuinely interested, shared in the joys of my progress, provided support during the lows, and challenged constructivlely during the more difficult times. Thank you Natalie for being a part of my mental wellbeing journey, you're a star, shine on!

therapy client

Before working with Natalie I was anxious, had little self belief and confidence in my own abilities, and didn't think much of myself. Working with Natalie enabled me to identify the root causes of my unhelpful thoughts, beliefs, and behaviours, and what kept these going. Natalie shared strategies and techniques which have enabled me to challenge and re-frame these thoughts, beliefs and the way I respond. I have become kinder to myself, I now speak up in meetings offering my views, I am more assertive and I kinda like myself now.

At the beginning of therapy, I felt anxious, unconfident and nervous before driving. I’m now feeling much more confident and optimistic about driving. I’m also proud of myself for pushing through my comfort zone with Natalie’s encouragement. It was really helpful being given tasks to complete for home practice and reflecting on how I was feeling before and after completing the tasks. To anyone struggling and thinking about having therapy with Natalie I’d say go for it!

Having therapy with Natalie will be the best thing you ever do! It requires time and effort but it'll result in you feeling so much happier every day. Working through exercises with Natalie and having her be able to succinctly summarise my stream of thoughts, and also challenge my thoughts where needed, really helped break my thought patterns and cement my new healthy rules. If I'd just done the exercises in isolation or read it in a book I wouldn't have arrived at the same outcome.

therapy client

At the beginning of therapy I was questioning whether I was in the right job or whether I could do the job or if it was my anxiety that was causing the problems I was facing. Now I understand how my anxiety was getting in the way of me managing my job. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Natalie, she's professional and knows her stuff.

We'll meet each week to talk things through in a proactive way. We’ll also agree therapeutic tasks for you to complete in between sessions so you can start putting the things you’re learning into practice.

We’ll create a written diagram of the problem, explaining how the problem developed and what's keeping it going. Clients often find this process extremely helpful to understand the why. You'll get clarity and an understanding of how you can overcome your difficulties.

In your initial appointment we’ll discuss your current difficulties and start to build a picture of exactly what the problem is. I'll also introduce you to how CBT works and we'll agree some therapy goals.

Sometimes we can find ourselves stuck in vicious cycles where our thoughts and the things we’re doing to solve a problem inadvertently keep it going. This means we continue to experience the negative feelings associated with the problem. In many cases, it can also make it difficult to move forward with our lives.

CBT can help you deal with overwhelming problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts. You’ll learn how to change negative patterns to improve the way you feel. Unlike some talking therapies, CBT deals with your current problems, rather than solely focusing on issues from your past. It can also help you identify practical ways to improve your state of mind on a daily basis.

THE KEY IDEA BEHIND COGNITIVE BEHAVIOURAL THERAPY (CBT) IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK (COGNITIVE) AND WHAT YOU DO (BEHAVIOURAL) AFFECTS THE WAY YOU FEEL.

How CBT Works & What to Expect

I love that your geographic location isn't a barrier to working with me - I believe people should be able to access the best therapist for them wherever they live.

I'm a big fan of the benefits online therapy brings - no travel time, no paying for parking, no waiting rooms, and convenient sessions that don't interfere with your day.

I think there's something special about being able to access therapy from the comfort of your own home - and research shows it's just as effective as face-to-face.

Therapy FAQs & Fees

How much do sessions cost, and do you accept insurance?

How much do sessions cost, and do you accept insurance?

Therapy sessions cost £125 and are 50 minutes. I have chosen not to work with insurance companies as most of my referrals come through recommendations or my Instagram community.

How many sessions will I need?

How many sessions will I need?

This really depends on your needs and preferences, but I can give you an idea of whether I think short-term or longer-term therapy will be helpful after our initial appointment. CBT is goal orientated which means therapy is often completed within 3-6 months, but I also have some clients who find the therapy space so valuable they choose to carry on for longer.

Are the sessions weekly?

Are the sessions weekly?

Yes, sessions take place on a weekly basis. In my experience biweekly therapy is less effective so I no longer offer this. You can think of it like taking a Vitamin C supplement - taking it half as often might make it last longer but it's going to be less potent and therefore less efficacious at giving you the results you want.

Do you only work with perfectionists / on perfectionism?

Do you only work with perfectionists / on perfectionism?

Do you offer any face-to-face appointments?

Do you work with children and teenagers?

Do you work with children and teenagers?

Yes, I have completed a 2-year postgraduate diploma in CBT for Children & Young People. Currently I will work with young people age 16+ in my private practice.
