About Natalie
Natalie Brunning is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 15 years of experience. She works with people carrying stress, anxiety, depression, difficulties with addictions, low self-esteem, and the effects of trauma and abuse. Natalie accepts international clients and delivers work in English.
Natalie focuses on helping people talk through upsetting memories and current stresses. She has experience supporting people affected by complex trauma, including PTSD and dissociative identity concerns, and by sexual or domestic abuse. She also helps with motivation, confidence, and practical coping strategies for everyday pressure.
Her approach is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. Natalie aims to make it possible to name painful feelings and to look at how they affect behaviour and relationships.
She also works with a wide range of related issues such as abandonment and attachment struggles, adoption and foster care histories, body image, chronic pain and illness, caregiving stress, and matters connected to kink and alternative sexual cultures. This breadth means she often supports complex, overlapping concerns rather than a single issue.
Natalie uses conversation, reflection and practical tools to help people build clearer coping options. The sign-up process uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary by location. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Evidence-based approaches are the foundation of Natalie’s work. One common method she uses helps people to process traumatic memories by gently naming what happened, how it affects them now, and building skills to manage strong reactions. This approach is often used for PTSD and complex trauma-related concerns.A second strand focuses on practical coping and mood management. That involves looking at daily routines, unhelpful thinking patterns, and small behavioural changes that reduce anxiety and low mood. It is useful for stress, depression, and motivation challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Natalie will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals and preferences. She aims to move at a pace the person is comfortable with and to adapt methods as understanding grows.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not specify formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or avoiding the need to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can offer effective therapy online when the format matches a person’s practical needs.
