Background and approach

Nathalie combines counseling with coaching skills when clients face career or life-direction questions. She has experience supervising master’s-level counselors pursuing licensure, which informs her thoughtful, reflective approach. In session she uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

She blends that with acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take workable steps toward them. Mindfulness practices are introduced to improve focus and calm for daily life. Nathalie’s style is warm and nonjudgmental.

She aims to build a collaborative plan that fits each person’s goals and pace. Sessions tend to focus on skills you can try between meetings, with space to talk through setbacks and adjust the plan. People who do best with Nathalie are looking for clear strategies plus personal support.

She helps clients break problems into manageable steps and develop coping skills that fit real life. Her goal is to help people regain function, confidence, and clearer direction.

How specific approaches translate to online support

Nathalie commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness techniques in her online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thinking and behavior patterns that get in the way and practicing small experiments to change them. Acceptance and commitment therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and grounding skills that reduce reactivity and improve focus.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nathalie works collaboratively to choose which methods to try based on each person’s goals, strengths, and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time and checks in on what is or isn’t working so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into busy lives. Video is useful for in-depth discussions and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier to schedule during a break. Live chat or text messaging supports quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing reminders between sessions. These options provide flexibility to match communication style and daily rhythms.
