About Nathalie
Nathalie Donny is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 18 years of experience helping people through hard times. She brings steady, practical support when stress, anxiety, depression, or major life changes feel overwhelming. Nathalie works in English and French and draws on several evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person.
Her work often focuses on trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy struggles, grief, and parenting concerns. She also supports people facing career transitions, eating and body image issues, bipolar-related challenges, and ADHD-related problems.
Background and approach
Nathalie aims to teach skills that can be used between sessions so progress carries into everyday life. In sessions she blends cognitive behavioral ideas with mindfulness and a client-centered stance. That means she helps people notice patterns in thoughts and behavior, practice new choices, and use present-moment awareness to reduce reactivity.
She also uses strategies from dialectical behavior therapy when intense emotions or relationship conflicts make daily life harder. Nathalie emphasizes clear, practical steps alongside emotional processing. Typical work might include learning coping skills, building communication tools, practicing distress-tolerance techniques, and setting small goals to regain momentum.
She presents these tools in plain terms and checks in on how they fit each person’s life. People who connect well with Nathalie tend to want straightforward guidance plus warmth. She focuses on helping individuals rebuild confidence, manage symptoms, and find clearer direction after difficult events.
Background and approach: As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida, Nathalie has supervised master’s-level clinicians and brings years of clinical experience to her practice. Her sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on skill building and practical problem solving. She adapts methods to match a person’s pace, whether the need is short-term coaching or longer-term therapy work.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and building actions that align with those values. It helps when someone feels stuck or avoids important life areas because of fear or worry. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to change them; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day problems. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment and teaches ways to reduce reactivity, which can ease stress and improve emotion regulation.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nathalie will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily routines and then recommend methods that fit. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques so the work stays practical and relevant to real life.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people meet face-to-face without travel, while phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide flexible ways to share thoughts between sessions and fit support into busy schedules. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to practice new skills in the actual places where they matter.
