ABOUT
Inner Wisdom Therapeutic Counselling is a licensed Counselling practice based in Melbourne - offering telehealth sessions on Mondays and Fridays.
Natalie is a lived-experience practitioner, whose warm and empathic nature creates a safe space for clients to connect with some of their most difficult places - in doing so, finding an ability to process, heal, and make lasting, meaningful change. She approaches therapy with the belief that we all hold the capacity to make real change, and she is guided by evidence-based approaches designed to achieve long-term and lasting positive effects.
''Here to support you through life’s most complex and difficult matters. I truly care about my clients’ well-being and provide warm, evidence-based counselling, tailored to your needs and goals. Let's harness the power of your inner wisdom to make meaningful and lasting change."
Perhaps you're down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. Whatever your needs may be, we offer warm and compassionate support throughout your therapeutic journey.

SERVICES
NATALIE
Counsellor
Natalie holds dual qualifications in Counselling and is a registered member of both the Australian Counselling Association (ACA), and Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA). Natalie works from a foundation of evidence-based therapeutic interventions, which she tailors as part of an integrative, person-centered approach to best suit the needs and goals of each unique individual. She believes that the beliefs we hold about ourselves, others, and the world shape our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, all of which are key parts of our wellbeing.
​
Her warm and empathic approach is part of a conscious intent to hold a safe space for each individual. She believes that this foundation of connection and trust with her clients is the first step in the process of healing. She utilises both cognitive and experiential approaches from Schema Therapy, Mindfulness Based Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, and Expressive Interventions to assist clients in tapping into deeper emotional processes from a top-down and bottom-up approach.
​
When not in the counselling space, Natalie practices yoga, enjoys making artwork, and can be found out and about on forest hiking trips with her fur baby Frankie.
