Natalie Young is a counsellor who focuses on helping people break repeating patterns that hold them back.
About Natalie
Natalie Young is a counsellor who focuses on helping people break repeating patterns that hold them back. She works with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, numb or unsure where to start. Natalie uses a warm, person-centred way of working that aims to make the therapy space feel manageable and human.
She draws on five years of experience and a BACP registration to guide exploration of how past experiences shape current behaviour.
Background and approach
Sessions often look at attachment, shame and the parts of the self that get hidden. The aim is to identify the blind spots that keep someone repeating the same responses. Natalie combines gentle challenge with creative, emotionally-focused work.
She helps people name and sit with difficult feelings rather than avoiding them. That can free up energy for healthier relationships and clearer decision making. Her approach suits people wanting practical understanding as well as deeper emotional change.
Work can include looking at relationship patterns, coping with loss and grief, parenting stresses, addiction, ADHD-related difficulties and career or life transitions. Natalie invites curious and motivated people to explore their inner life and develop more compassion for themselves. Sessions aim to strengthen the relationship people have with themselves while improving how they relate to others.

Approaches that suit online therapy
Trauma-focused work and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are two approaches Natalie uses to guide online sessions. Trauma-focused work looks at how difficult events affect present reactions and helps people notice and change unhelpful patterns. ACT helps people clarify values and take small committed steps towards them while learning to hold hard feelings differently. Attachment-Based Therapy is also part of her practice and explores how early relationship patterns shape current bonds and emotional responses. This approach can help people improve communication, manage fear of abandonment and build more supported ways of relating. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Natalie will listen to what matters most, discuss ways of working and adapt methods to match a person's goals and preferences. She encourages an open dialogue about what feels helpful and what needs adjusting along the way. Online therapy offers practical benefits for those juggling work, family or distance. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions can be a good fit for low bandwidth or when being on camera is tiring. Live chat or text-based messaging suits shorter check-ins, reflective writing between sessions or when flexibility is needed for busy days.Frequently asked
