  • Attachment-based therapy takes a deep dive into your developmental, psychological, and relationship history to gain a holistic view of how you process emotions, relate to others, and experience the world at a broad level. This kind of therapy harnesses the therapeutic bond to help you explore your inner world and get to the root of clinical issues such as low self-esteem, trust issues, depression, anxiety, and more. Therapy is focused on processing and restructuring emotions.

  • Marriage and family therapists are uniquely qualified in the assessment and treatment of individuals, couples, families, and groups. Marriage and family therapists have a core understanding about the couple and family system and are required to have met educational and clinical hour requirements working with couples, families, and children in order to practice. As a doctoral level MFT, my expertise is in assessing and treating systemic problems in relationships and communities.

  • My practice currently operates online with an in-person option available at a later time. Telehealth is currently offered to residents of California, New York, Florida, Virginia and Michigan. Clients must be physically located in one of these states at the time of service in order to engage in telehealth.

  • The information below pertains to The No Surprises Health Service Act (2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, January 2022):

    You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. In regard to therapy with Dr. Natalie, this includes psychotherapy services.

    Note that you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your treatment will cost. Under the law, all health care providers need to provide their patients an estimate of their bill for services – if their patients don’t have insurance or will not be using insurance.

    You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any of your services.

    Your therapist is expected to give you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your therapy begins.

    You can also ask for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. (If you receive a bill that is $400 more than the Good Faith Estimate you received, you can dispute the bill).

    Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
