Natalie Wakeley, LPC

Natalie Wakeley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and bipolar mood concerns. She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, self-esteem struggles, anger, career issues, and major life changes. Natalie emphasizes practical steps people can use right away to feel steadier and cope better day to day.

She works in a collaborative, personalized way. Natalie listens for what matters most and builds a plan that fits each person's life and goals. She pays attention to how the body and mind interact, so sessions may include strategies that address physical responses as well as thoughts and emotions.

Her approach blends several methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, mindfulness practices, solution-focused tasks, and somatic work. Natalie draws from these approaches to help people manage symptoms, create new patterns, and problem-solve in concrete ways.

With six years of clinical experience, Natalie brings steady guidance and practical tools. She aims to help people identify strengths and use them to make changes that matter. Sessions are aimed at short-term goals and longer-term growth depending on what each person needs.

Clients interested in beginning work are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and payment varies by location and therapist availability.

How her approaches work online and what to expect

Many of Natalie’s methods translate well to an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when relationships feel strained. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.

Choosing an approach is a team effort. Natalie will work with each person to decide which methods match their goals and daily life. She combines elements as needed and adjusts strategies over time based on what is helping and what is not.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find online sessions help them stay consistent and practice skills between appointments.
