About Natalie
Natalie Kramer is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Indiana who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and struggles with self-esteem and relationships. She also supports those coping with life changes, parenting challenges, trauma, and issues around intimacy and communication. Natalie brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to sessions and aims to help people find tools that fit their daily life.
She draws on nine years of experience in community mental health and work related to the criminal justice system. That background means she has sat with people during hard transitions and practical crises. Natalie combines different methods to shape each plan to the person in front of her rather than using a one-size-fits-all script.
Her style is warm and interactive. She emphasizes respect, empathy, and straightforward dialogue. Natalie describes herself as a Christian counselor and offers those values when clients want that perspective included in sessions.
Therapeutic tools she uses include cognitive-behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior strategies, emotionally focused techniques, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. Sessions often focus on building insight, learning coping skills, and practicing new ways to solve problems.
Natalie aims to help clients translate what they learn in therapy into lasting change. She frames difficult moments as opportunities for growth and supports people willing to take steps toward change. Her background as a teacher, speaker, trainer, and coach informs how she structures work and homework between sessions.
How Natalie Uses Evidence-Based Methods Online
CBT, or cognitive-behavioral therapy, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to change mood and reduce anxiety. It is often practical and skill-oriented, useful for stress, anxiety, and some mood concerns.DBT, or dialectical behavior therapy, teaches skills for managing strong emotions, improving frustration tolerance, and reducing impulsive behaviors. It can help with high emotion, difficulty regulating anger, and problems with impulsivity.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy emphasizes understanding and reshaping emotional responses in close relationships. It helps people notice patterns that harm connection and practice new ways of relating that build trust and intimacy.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That plan can change as progress is made and as needs shift, so clients remain involved in choosing what feels most helpful.
