About Natalie

Natalie Leslie is a BACP-registered counsellor who brings a person-centred approach to supporting people through depression, anxiety, grief and a wide range of life changes. She creates a nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored openly, and she collaborates with clients to identify practical ways to feel more empowered and understood. Natalie emphasises the courage it takes to pursue a more fulfilling life and offers steady support as people take the first steps toward change.

Natalie is also an accredited NHS Talking Therapies counsellor and has specialist training in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling for Depression (PCE-CFD). PCE-CFD blends person-centred and emotion-focused work to help people manage low mood, anxiety and emotional overwhelm by focusing on emotional processing and reconnection with the self as an alternative to cognitive approaches. Her practice is suited to those navigating grief, parenting challenges, relationship and family issues, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem concerns, career stress and compassion fatigue, among other difficulties.

Working with Natalie involves a collaborative, compassionate process aimed at helping each person better understand themselves and the difficulties they face. She meets clients where they are and supports them in developing insight, resilience and clearer ways of coping.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathetic environment where the client leads the pace of change. The therapist offers active listening and reflection to help people explore feelings and build self-understanding, which can be helpful for depression, anxiety and self-esteem concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and work with core emotions that underlie relationship and personal difficulties. By exploring emotional responses and patterns, EFT aims to improve emotional connection and reduce overwhelming distress, making it useful for grief, relationship problems and emotional overwhelm.

Natalie approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She will listen to a person’s needs, goals and preferences and together they will decide which approach or combination of approaches feels most helpful. Finding the right therapeutic fit is part of the work, and the plan can be adjusted as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter conversations can happen via live chat or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from home or elsewhere with licensed professionals and therapists accessible in different formats.
