About Natalie
Natalie Ehrlich is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing relationship strain, stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, self-esteem concerns, and depression, and notes a focus on guilt and shame in her practice. Natalie aims to help people who feel stuck or overwhelmed by life transitions and everyday pressures.
She trained at the University of Southern California and has worked in schools, residential programs, foster care, and outpatient mental health settings. Natalie stepped away from clinical work to raise three children and returned with a renewed perspective that she brings into sessions.
Natalie’s approach is conversational and collaborative. She listens with plain language and helps clients sort through what matters most. Sessions commonly focus on practical steps, clearer thinking, and setting achievable goals.
Her methods draw on client-centered techniques and cognitive behavioral therapy, along with solution-focused ideas to help people test small changes and notice what shifts. Natalie describes her style as down-to-earth and practical rather than formal or highly technical.
People who come to her often want help with communication problems, family of origin issues, adoption and foster care concerns, or finding more self-love. She also addresses mood disorders, life purpose questions, and issues linked to narcissism. Natalie works in English and practices in California as an LCSW.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what you say so you can find your own answers; it helps when someone needs clearer thinking and acceptance as they sort through guilt or shame. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and patterns that keep difficult feelings going and teaches practical ways to test new behaviors and responses. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, observable changes and short-term goals to create momentum.Choosing an approach is often collaborative. Natalie will work with each person to figure out which mix of methods fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and shifting the plan over time rather than locking into one method up front.
The biography does not specify which online formats are used, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - sessions can be scheduled around work or caregiving, shorter check-ins can be arranged when needed, and some people prefer not being on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises and solution-focused steps to an online setting so practical skills are still practiced between sessions.
