About Natalie
Natalie Benjamin is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She draws on seven years of practice to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Natalie also supports those managing ADHD and concerns around concentration and motivation.
She uses straightforward, person-focused work that centres on the individual's experience. Sessions aim to make space to talk, build understanding and try practical steps that fit everyday life.
How Natalie works
Natalie adapts her approach to each person's needs rather than following a single formula. Her background includes work with people who have special educational needs, and recent training in supporting autistic people and those with ADHD. That experience informs how she notices sensory or concentration challenges and suggests realistic coping strategies.
In sessions she blends client-centred listening with psychodynamic reflection and short-term, solution-focused techniques. That mix helps people understand patterns from the past while also testing small, achievable changes in the present. Sessions are paced to suit the person's readiness and goals.
Natalie aims to create a respectful, empathetic space so people can speak openly about issues such as body image, caregiver stress, relationship communication and feelings of isolation. She encourages steps toward clearer routines, improved self-talk and practical ways to manage panic or social anxiety. Starting therapy is framed as a collaborative process.
Natalie helps people set simple, realistic goals and checks progress as work continues.

How Natalie’s approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on hearing the person's experience without judgement and helping them find their own answers. It is useful for building self-esteem, reducing anxiety and feeling understood. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns and past influences that affect current feelings and relationships; it can help when someone wants to understand recurring issues or strong emotional reactions. Solution-Focused Therapy aims to identify small, practical changes and short-term goals that bring immediate relief and clearer direction.Finding the right approach is something the therapist will do together with the client. Natalie will ask about needs, goals and preferences, then try methods that suit those aims. Sessions are collaborative so the plan can change as the person notices what helps most.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people read facial cues and build rapport. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter setup is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter progress updates or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options offer flexibility and practical ways to keep therapy consistent around work, family and travel.
