About Natalia
Natalia Blevins-Conner brings a client-centered approach combined with cognitive behavioral techniques to help people address a wide range of life challenges.
Background and approach
With 23 years of experience as a licensed professional counselor, she emphasizes the client’s own knowledge of their story and builds on personal strengths to reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression, and bipolar mood concerns. Her practice also addresses addictions, grief and loss, intimacy and relationship questions, and issues affecting self-esteem and body image.
She integrates strategies from DBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing when helpful, tailoring interventions to the client’s goals and readiness for change. Natalia has worked with concerns related to parenting, sleep and eating difficulties, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and the effects of trauma and abuse.
Located in Virginia and licensed to practice in Tennessee and Virginia, she supports clients through a collaborative, strengths-based process aimed at practical coping skills and clearer decision-making.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Natalia often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT provides concrete exercises and behavioral experiments that can be practiced between sessions to build lasting skills.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes an empathetic, nonjudgmental stance and helps clients explore their priorities and strengths at their own pace. This approach supports emotional processing and clearer self-understanding as goals and values become more defined.
Finding the best therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques from DBT, mindfulness, or motivational interviewing when those tools seem useful. Clients are involved in setting objectives and choosing interventions that feel most relevant to their lives.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and practice skills in real time with therapist guidance.
