01About Natalie
Natalie Wakeley is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and challenges with self-esteem. She works with adults facing mood disorders such as bipolar depression and with people coping with relationship, parenting, grief, or career concerns. Her style is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at finding what helps in everyday life.
Natalie sees therapy as a team effort. She starts by listening to what feels most troubling and then helps identify small, achievable steps.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skills practice and simple strategies to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. She emphasizes the link between body sensations and emotions when useful. Her background includes six years of clinical experience as a licensed counselor in Georgia.
She uses a mix of approaches to meet each person’s needs rather than offering a single fixed model. That flexible approach helps when problems are complex or have developed over a long time. People working with Natalie can expect clear goals and tools to try between sessions.
She draws from cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, solution-focused work, and body-based methods when those fit the situation. The aim is to build coping skills and increase emotional awareness so clients feel more capable. Natalie also pays attention to caregiving stress, attachment and adoption issues, codependency, dissociation, and chronic illness or pain.
She tailors treatment plans to what matters most to each person and adjusts approaches as progress is made.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online care
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with clear, practical exercises. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress when people want concrete tools to change thinking and behavior.DBT, or dialectical behavior therapy, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better ways to handle intense feelings and relationship conflicts. It can help when emotions feel overwhelming or when patterns of impulsive behavior cause problems.
Natalie will work with each person to decide which approaches to try. Finding the right fit is a joint process that begins with listening to priorities and trying methods that match goals. She adjusts techniques as progress is made so the work stays relevant and useful.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow real-time conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions can work when a video connection is difficult or someone prefers voice only. Live chat or messaging is useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when someone needs flexible timing. These options make it easier to connect around work, caregiving, or tight schedules and to continue therapy even when life gets busy.
