About Nathalie

Nathalie Carrera is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with nine years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, trauma and family concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and aim to address everyday struggles like parenting, relationship friction, and life changes.

Nathalie takes a straightforward, person-centered approach. She listens first, then helps clients name what’s happening and test small changes. Conversations focus on practical skills and clearer communication rather than long explanations. Clients learn ways to notice triggers and respond differently when tension rises.

Her background includes work with trauma, attachment issues, and caregiving stress. That work informs how she supports people dealing with past hurt, separation, or immigration-related strain. She also helps with issues tied to adoption, family of origin, and pregnancy or childbirth concerns.

Techniques come from several evidence-informed methods. Nathalie uses client-centered methods to follow each person’s concerns, cognitive-behavioral tools to rethink unhelpful patterns, and DBT strategies for managing strong emotions. Emotionally-focused and attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship patterns and connection.

Sessions tend to be practical and concrete. Expect clear goals, short skills practice, and guidance on applying new responses in daily life. To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.

How sessions work

How her approaches guide online work

Attachment-based ideas focus on patterns of connection and trust. In practice this means looking at how past relationships shape current reactions and learning new ways to reach for support. This work can be helpful for family of origin issues, attachment concerns, and feelings tied to abandonment or adoption.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts, feelings, and actions into manageable steps. It teaches straightforward tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger that comes from repeated thinking patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. These tools help reduce impulsive reactions and improve how someone copes when upset. Skills practice can be short and focused, which fits well with practical weekly check-ins.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Nathalie will help clients decide which methods to emphasize based on goals and preferences. That selection is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The therapist’s biography does not list session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel, and allow concise check-ins during work breaks or between appointments. Speak with the intake process to learn which formats are available and what will best suit your scheduling needs.
