About Natalie

Natalie Knight is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who centers therapy on the relationship between therapist and client. She uses that connection to help people notice what needs attention right now. Natalie focuses on practical changes that reduce anxiety and clear space for healthier habits and emotions.

Her style is grounded and straightforward, aimed at people who want to stop repeating old patterns and start trying something different. Natalie draws on a mix of methods to support change.

Background and approach

She uses client-centered work to help people find their own answers and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also incorporates EMDR when past experiences are getting in the way of feeling okay in the present. Clients can expect sessions that focus on identifying stuck beliefs and experimenting with small shifts.

Natalie explains ideas in plain language and helps people practice new skills between meetings. She pays attention to how emotions show up in the body and in relationships, and she helps people name those patterns. With 13 years of experience, Natalie brings steady clinical background to common life struggles such as stress, grief, depression, and coping with change.

Her areas of focus include anxiety, self-esteem, career concerns, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues that arise later in life and during major health events, including aging and geriatric concerns, cancer, caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life topics, and forgiveness work. Natalie practices from Arizona and offers services in English.

How Natalie’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy starts from the person’s own experience and sense of what matters. Natalie listens and reflects to help people find answers inside themselves, then supports practical next steps and experiments to change daily life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions break down unhelpful thinking, try behavior changes, and build simple skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used when past events keep reappearing in day-to-day life. In an online format Natalie guides the process carefully to help reduce the emotional charge of those memories and free up energy for new ways of living.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Natalie will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaboration makes it easier to find methods that fit a person’s needs and pace.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions remove screen needs, and live chat or text messaging give shorter, more frequent check-ins. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practice changes between meetings.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
