About Natalie
Natalie Brunning is a counsellor who helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or low mood. She works with people coping with depression, addictions, low self-esteem and confidence issues. Natalie makes space for difficult topics like trauma and sexual or domestic abuse and supports clients to move at a pace that feels comfortable.
With more than 15 years of experience, Natalie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations. She focuses on creating an open, non-judgemental atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be shared. Sessions aim to help people find clearer ways to manage emotions and make small, practical changes in day-to-day life.
Natalie has particular experience supporting people with complex trauma, including post-traumatic stress and dissociative difficulties. She also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image and codependency. This lets her tailor her work to each person’s priorities.
Her background includes long-term practice in the United Kingdom and development of approaches for people affected by sexual and domestic abuse. Natalie uses what has helped others in similar situations and adapts it to the person in front of her.
She offers sessions in English and is able to work with people outside the UK. The booking process asks a few simple questions so she can match the work to a person’s needs and goals.
How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are practical ways of working that focus on thoughts, feelings and behaviour to help reduce distress and improve coping. For example, trauma-focused approaches help people process painful memories and learn grounding strategies to manage flashbacks or overwhelming emotions. Another common technique is structured problem-solving, which breaks large worries into small, achievable steps to reduce anxiety and increase confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to a person's history, current concerns and goals, then discuss which methods might fit best. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as avoiding travel time or scheduling shorter check-ins around work. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. When arranged, remote sessions can help people maintain continuity of support across locations and at different stages of life.
