I love helping people find their way out of the anxiety cycle that's holding them back.


Hi, I'm Natalie

About me

For most of my life I felt like my place in the world came from what I achieved or did for others, but I never felt like I was doing enough. The next thing I did or achieved would finally be the thing that would get me there. It took working with a really great counsellor to help me figure out how to just be myself, and that I am enough as I am.

For most of my life...

About me

Now I work with people...

helping them to figure out their 'shoulds' and how they show up in their life, because so often they're trying to live up to someone else's expectations instead of their own.

A lot of people come to me at breaking point: anxious, overwhelmed, and feeling like they're not good enough, even when they're giving it all they have.

It doesn't have to stay that way.

I completed an Introduction to Counselling in 2016 and then in 2018 I started my Masters in Counselling at the University of Northampton, graduating in 2021.

Due to work having to move online during the pandemic I completed the Counselling Tutor ‘Online and Telephone Counselling’ training course to ensure I learnt how to work ethically and safely which I continue to follow today.

I volunteered at Northamptonshire Mind for the placement part of my course, getting to work with a wide variety of people on different topics ranging from anxiety to grief, depression to self-confidence.

I worked as an associate counsellor in a sixth form for 2 years and some of the topics I supported students with were social anxiety, exam stress and worries about what was next after sixth form.

In my private practice work I specialise in anxiety, stress and self-esteem, and open to anyone 18+ who would like to work online or in person.

Since graduating I have continued with reading and online courses particularly around anxiety, autism and ADHD.
