Hi, I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Western New York, with over 13 years of experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, which helped me discover where my heart truly lies—supporting women through life’s many transitions. Are you navigating the uncertainty of post-college life, wondering who you are outside the classroom? Have you recently started a new job and find yourself second-guessing every move? Maybe you’re a mom juggling countless responsibilities, trying your best while feeling stretched thin. Change can be overwhelming—especially when it’s accompanied by self-doubt, confusion, or shame. My passion is helping women better understand themselves, build confidence, and improve their mental health as they move through life’s inevitable shifts. My counseling style is warm, patient, and open-minded. I am trauma-informed and draw on a range of evidence-based modalities to support healing from trauma, anxiety, depression, and behavioral challenges. Above all, I aim to create a safe, supportive space where you feel empowered to grow.

Hello, I'm Natalia. Are you feeling overwhelmed, tired, and worn with all your responsibilities as a young adult woman (ages 18-35)? Maybe feeling anxious, down or depressed and wondering how you will manage it all? Whether you’re a mother, a daughter, a student or an employee, you matter and behind all that you do is a woman wanting to be seen and heard. You Are Not Alone and you don’t have to do life alone. In our sessions, you will be listened to, understood, and given practical evidence-based tools and techniques to manage those difficult emotions while you learn to care for your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. This is your life, your decision to make it better, and you can be empowered to live it at your best. If you’re ready for that empowerment or even considering it , I am here to help. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hola, soy Natalia. ¿Te sientes abrumada, cansada, y desgastada con todas tus responsabilidades como joven adulta? ¿Probablemente te estas sintiendo ansiosa, decaída o deprimida y pensando como vas a manejar todo lo que tienes en tu plato? Si eres madre, hija, estudiante o empleada, tú importas y detrás de todo lo qué haces esta una mujer que quiere ser reconocida. No estás sola y no tienes que vivir la vida sola. En nuestras sesiones, serás escuchada, entendida, y te daré herramientas y técnicas prácticas que han sido comprobadas para manejar esas emociones difíciles mientras cuidas tu bien estar físico, emocional, y mental.

For over 17 years, I have dedicated my life to supporting the healing and empowerment of people from marginalized communities (including LGBTQ+, POC and WOC.) My work is rooted in the belief that each person is an expert in their own lives. As a therapist I work in holistic collaboration with my clients to create a life they love, regardless of if whatever is arising in the current moment is pleasant, unpleasant or neutral. I bring an anti-oppressive and social justice lens to the work with a focus on holistic wellness in mind, body and spirit. I am an LCSW trained in DBT, Emotional Release Work, EMDR and Mediation. Also, I am an Ordained Interfaith Minister, Holistic Health Counselor, Reiki Teacher and Community Dharma (Mindfulness) Instructor, 200hr Yoga teacher and licensed (inactive) attorney.

When I was in my undergraduate studies, I fell in love with the idea that people have abilities, rather than handicap. Then I went to my master's program in Rehabilitation Counseling, and I loved that people get chances to improve their lives. I love seeing my people thrive and learn to live their best lives. I love catching people doing great.
