About Natalie
Natalie Eden, LCPC, LPC, is a licensed counselor practicing in Illinois with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, sleep problems, parenting challenges, ADHD, and related issues.
Natalie aims to help people make clearer choices and gain practical insight. Sessions focus on concrete problem solving, improving communication, and rebuilding a sense of competence. She emphasizes restoring personal strengths and working toward practical goals.
Her background includes time in outpatient behavioral health at a major Chicago hospital where she provided individual and group therapy. She later moved into private practice and has worked with a wide range of emotional challenges for more than a decade.
Natalie holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and earned a 4.0 GPA there. She also has an MBA from James Madison University and a summa cum laude bachelor’s degree in English/Communications from Campbell University.
Her training includes coursework in addictions and motivational interviewing, and she lists approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Existential Therapy, the Gottman Method, and Motivational Interviewing. These shape how she structures sessions and the tools she brings to common problems.
Outside of clinical work she is married and has two adult children. She spends spare time on travel, writing, genealogy, and art.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit in
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. It helps people feel heard while they sort through difficult decisions and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful routines.Finding the right approach is often part of the work. Natalie will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. That might mean using CBT tools for anxious thoughts, motivational interviewing for substance concerns, or a client-centered stance when exploring grief or relationship problems.
If you plan to try sessions online, confirm the available session formats before booking because the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them focus. Talk with Natalie about what will work best for scheduling, session length, and how the chosen approaches will be used in virtual meetings.
