About Natalie
Natalie Wuestb is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with six years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and depression. Natalie also works with parents facing perinatal mood and anxiety challenges and offers practical support through difficult life transitions.
Natalie takes a straightforward and respectful approach in sessions. She listens first, then builds a plan that fits each person. Conversations are tailored to what feels most useful for daily life.
Background and approach
She aims to make therapy practical and manageable, not overwhelming. Her background includes clinical training in client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior strategies. Natalie draws from these approaches to help people change unhelpful thoughts, build better coping skills, and improve communication patterns.
She adapts tools so they work in real situations. Sessions typically focus on clear, doable steps. That might mean practicing a new way to talk about a problem, testing a small change, or learning ways to reduce worry.
Natalie supports gradual progress and checks in often about what is working. She frames therapy as a collaborative process. Clients set goals, and she offers guidance and skills to reach them.
For parents and those navigating family challenges, Natalie aims to help restore more balance and connection in everyday life.
How Natalie’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting connection. In practice she follows the client’s lead, offers empathy, and helps people find their own solutions to stress or family difficulties.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. Natalie uses CBT techniques to help people test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. This approach can be helpful when emotions feel intense or when communication repeatedly breaks down.
Natalie treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what fits best. Clients help decide which methods feel most useful for their situation.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people connect face to face from home, phone sessions work when video isn’t possible, and live chat or text messaging can support shorter check-ins or skill practice. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy family routine and to keep steady momentum 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.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
