About Natalie

Natalie Samuel is a psychotherapist with NCPS registration and four years of experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships and a wide range of related concerns including trauma, depression, addiction and sleep problems. Natalie describes work around attachment, intimacy and self-esteem as part of her practice.

Natalie uses straightforward conversations and practical strategies. Sessions look at what is hard now and what small steps could make things less overwhelming. She works from several recognised therapeutic approaches to give people options during therapy.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used too, helping people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them. Attachment-based work pays attention to how early relationships shape present responses in close relationships.

Natalie also uses client-centred listening to let people find their own perspective. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are included when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are useful. These methods are blended in conversation rather than offered as rigid packages.

She has experience supporting people dealing with relationship strain, grief and life changes such as separation or caregiving stress. Natalie also addresses eating and body image concerns alongside addictions and substance-related difficulties. The emphasis is on clear steps and practical coping strategies.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions operate through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How therapy approaches translate to online working

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice stressful thoughts and take action in line with what matters to them. It focuses on values-based steps rather than trying to remove every uncomfortable thought. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviours that keep problems going and offers clear exercises to change them, which can be useful for anxiety and sleep difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help with intimacy and communication challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, try different ways of working and agree what feels most helpful. That collaborative process helps shape which methods get used and how sessions are organised.

The original profile does not specify particular online formats, so please confirm the session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use techniques in the places they live, practise new skills between sessions and return to topics with continuity. Registered or accredited professionals generally adapt exercises, homework and emotion-regulation skills for remote sessions so the work can be practical and relevant to everyday life.
