About Natalie

Natalie Scetinkinova is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, depression, grief, trauma, addictions, and a broad range of life and identity challenges.

Background and approach

She also supports those navigating intimacy-related issues, parenting struggles, sleep problems, career transitions, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and several interpersonal dynamics such as attachment, commitment, and communication difficulties. With eight years of clinical experience, she blends practical support with reflective exploration to address both immediate problems and deeper patterns.

Her style is warm, compassionate, and person-centered, grounded in curiosity and respect for each person’s journey. Natalie often combines cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and existential elements, and she incorporates mindfulness-based practices to help clients develop tools they can use between sessions.

Trained in additional trauma-informed methods, she draws on a range of approaches to support healing across emotional, cognitive, and behavioral levels. Her international studies inform a broad perspective that she brings to collaborative therapy work aimed at meaningful, sustainable change.

Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life

Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and meeting the person where they are, helping clients feel heard as they explore values and goals. This approach supports growth by centering the client's perspective and fostering self-directed insight. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering structured tools for managing anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns. CBT is practical and skills-oriented, which can be especially useful for clients seeking concrete strategies.

Natalie views finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She works with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time so the work remains relevant and personally meaningful. The process emphasizes partnership and gradual experimentation rather than one predetermined path.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, online therapy provides flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, facilitate access for international clients, and allow the use of tools like between-session exercises and real-time check-ins. The combination of therapeutic approaches and varied session formats aims to make consistent, tailored care more attainable.
