About

Hello and welcome! My name is Natalie Wakeley and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia. If you're new to therapy or have tried therapy in the past and want to explore a more holistic approach, I can help. I specialize in Somatic techniques as well as IFS and DBT to help you process trauma, emotional pain patterns, relationship issues, life transitions, and disorders such as Bipolar, BPD, and OCD that cause anxiety, depression, and emotional pain. A holistic approach is the belief that our bodies and minds are deeply connected and work together which means they should be treated together to achieve true balance. This simply means that in our sessions we will focus on the mind and thoughts but also tune into and connect with our feelings and emotional body. Each therapy session and treatment plan should be as unique as you are, and together, we will work to get to the root of your symptoms and develop a plan to achieve true contentment and peace. This personalized and holistic approach helps you see your world through a more positive and balanced lens that promotes total well-being. My approach I use Somatic Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Psychoanalysis, and the Internal Family Systems model in my approach. In addition, I use an integrative and collaborative approach with each client I work with to determine which therapy modality works best for you. The goal is for you to recognize your strengths and abilities, understand your motivations, and implement proven techniques in a structured way to cultivate real results and change. My focus I am experienced in working with clients from all walks of life with varying concerns. My specializations include treating trauma, BPD, bipolar disorder, anger, depression, anxiety, family conflict, life transitions, co-dependency, stress management, and more.
