About Natalie
Natalie Eden welcomes adults seeking practical, strengths-based support for stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, ADHD, and life transitions. She emphasizes helping clients build insight, make clearer decisions, and tap into their existing resources to navigate emotional and behavioral challenges.
Background and approach
Natalie frames treatment around restoring dignity, developing problem-solving skills, and promoting personal growth tailored to each person’s goals. With 13 years of clinical experience, Natalie holds LCPC and LPC credentials and practices in Illinois.
Her training includes focused coursework in addictions and motivational interviewing, and she has worked in outpatient behavioral health settings providing both individual and group therapy. Natalie also completed advanced studies in clinical psychology and holds additional graduate degrees that inform her practical, goal-oriented style.
Her approach blends client-centered work with evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies, existential exploration, Gottman-informed techniques, and motivational interviewing to address mood concerns, relationship patterns, coping with loss, caregiver stress, and end-of-life issues. Sessions are offered through multiple online formats to fit varied schedules and preferences.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective and creating an empathetic space where clients set the pace for growth; this approach is useful for concerns like self-esteem, grief, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with stress. Motivational Interviewing helps clarify personal reasons for change and strengthens motivation, making it a good fit for addictions, ambivalence about treatment, and behavior change goals.Choosing the right approach is part of the work and will be a collaborative process. The therapist will explore clients' needs, goals, and preferences and suggest methods that best match those aims, adjusting strategies as therapy progresses to maintain a good fit.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals in several formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives or manage care from different locations. These options support continuity of care, scheduling flexibility, and the ability to engage in therapy in ways that feel most comfortable for the client.
