About Natalie

Natalie Wakeley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and mood concerns. She brings a calm, practical approach to sessions and focuses on finding what helps each person feel steadier. Natalie is based in Georgia and offers therapy in English.

Natalie uses a mix of therapy methods to address trauma, depression, bipolar symptoms, and relationship struggles. She prefers straightforward work that targets current problems and builds daily skills.

Background and approach

Sessions often include learning new coping tools, practicing ways to change unhelpful thoughts, and noticing how the body responds to stress. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She talks with clients about what is working and what needs to change.

Together they set goals and measure progress in ways that feel relevant to real life. Natalie also pays attention to the body’s role in emotional states. Somatic techniques and mindfulness are used to help people feel more grounded during high stress or strong emotions.

These strategies are paired with skills-based approaches to reduce reactivity and improve self-regulation. With six years of experience, Natalie draws on practical tools from several approaches rather than a single method. She aims to tailor each plan to what the person needs right now.

This often means combining short-term solutions with skills that build long-term stability. People who start with Natalie typically work on clear, measurable changes. That can mean reducing angry outbursts, managing mood swings, improving communication, or coping better with life transitions.

Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

How specific approaches translate to online work

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include short skills practice, thought records, and homework that people can use between sessions to reduce anxiety and reactivity.

DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal skills. In remote sessions this can mean learning breathing and grounding techniques, practicing mindfulness, and role-playing communication strategies to manage anger and intense emotions.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple exercises to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without judgment. These practices help reduce rumination and support calmer responses to triggers.

Natalie will work together with each person to find the best mix of approaches. She treats the selection of methods as a collaborative process that depends on goals, symptoms, and personal preferences. A few sessions are often used to test what fits and adjust the plan as needed.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for teaching new skills and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat or text messaging is useful for brief coaching, follow-up between sessions, or when writing out thoughts helps the process. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules.
