About
Having experienced profound loss myself, I understand how isolating grief can be, and I'm here to offer you the compassion, connection, and hope that helped me in my own mental health journey.
My name is Natalie and I graduated with my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lock Haven University in 2025, with a certificate in telehealth counseling. I have experience working with clients from ages five to 85, supporting them through grief, loss, life transitions, and mental health challenges such as anxiety and depression. I also have experience with cancer support, helping clients and caregivers navigate a diagnosis, manage the caregiving journey, and cope with loss. I guide clients in building resilience, finding balance, and fostering hope.
My approach is collaborative, person-centered, and tailored to each individual's needs. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and strengths-based interventions. I also incorporate art therapy to help clients express emotions and process difficult experiences.
My passion for grief counseling is rooted in my own experiences with loss, deepening my understanding of its impact. Seeking support is a courageous step, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you. You do not have to face this alone—your healing journey can begin today.

My go-to approach for helping people in CBT is helping them understand the model, learn and apply the skills, and then practice them outside of sessions for success. I then prefer to go deeper and look at the roots of negative thoughts/negative storylines for not only improved symptom relief but overall improved trajectory of life and view of self.
I teach the following tools in CBT:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in CBT when they can catch, challenge, and reframe thoughts either alone or with help.
Clients can supplement their time in CBT with practice, practice, practice! Practice is crucial in this method of therapy, along with good self-care! This is challenging but effective and hopeful work you're doing.
To prepare for their first CBT session, an individual can think about their main challenges and triggers, take deep breaths, and be ready to be open to trying new things.
At Thriveworks, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a widely recognized and evidence-based form of psychotherapy or talk therapy. It focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors that can contribute to various mental health issues or challenges that people are struggling with.
Cognitive behavioral therapists specialize in Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and can help you to identify and comprehend your thought patterns, which often encompass automatic negative thoughts, cognitive distortions, and self-defeating beliefs. Once these negative thought patterns are pinpointed, cognitive behavioral therapists aim to challenge and replace them with the objective of fostering more constructive and logical thinking. In addition, these therapists place significant emphasis on implementing positive behavioral changes based on the newly established, healthier thought patterns.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is particularly effective for addressing conditions like anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. It focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors, making it well-suited for issues related to distorted thinking and emotional regulation.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
The success rate of CBT varies depending on the intentions of the client and their condition(s).
The selection between cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is based on an individual’s unique needs and challenges. CBT is commonly chosen for addressing conditions such as anxiety and depression, whereas DBT is especially beneficial for individuals dealing with borderline personality disorder, emotional regulation issues, and difficulties in interpersonal relationships.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with our Thriveworks therapists in Bethlehem, PA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Generally, CBT is considered a short-term therapy, typically lasting for about 12 to 20 weekly sessions. In some cases, it might extend to around 16 to 20 sessions for more complex issues.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
