About Natalie

Natalie Wingard is an LPC who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, grief, and depression. He focuses on practical change and steady support so people can feel more able to get through hard days. Natalie speaks plainly and aims to make sessions a place to sort through immediate problems and set manageable goals.

He uses a client-centered approach that puts the person’s choices first. Natalie likens therapy to riding in a car together - the client drives and he sits alongside, offering options, reflections, and occasional challenges. He also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.

Natalie’s work often focuses on addictive behaviors including porn, drugs, gambling, gaming, and social media. He also regularly addresses anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, grief, ADHD, and sexual or relationship concerns. He seeks to reduce shame and isolation while building clearer communication and more stable daily routines.

With six years of clinical experience, Natalie aims for straightforward, respectful sessions. He provides space to process trauma and loss and practical steps to manage panic, mood swings, impulsivity, and chronic pain or illness challenges. Sessions emphasize realistic coping strategies and choices the client can use between meetings.

Natalie practices in Texas and conducts therapy in English. He is motivated by personal losses to suicide and addiction and wants clients to have better tools and supports than he sometimes found available.

How Natalie blends client-centered care with CBT online

Client-centered therapy focuses on meeting the person where they are, listening without judgment, and following the client's goals. This approach helps people feel heard, make their own choices, and build motivation for change.

Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It offers practical exercises and small experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, mood problems, and some addictive patterns.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Natalie will work with each person to decide whether a client-centered stance, CBT techniques, or a mix of both fits best. He will check in on goals and adjust methods based on what the person wants and what helps them make progress.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for focused, goal-oriented work from different locations. It can also let people choose shorter check-ins or longer sessions depending on their schedule and needs.
