Natalie Scetinkinova, LMHC

Natalie Scetinkinova is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who helps people work through stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She supports individuals facing parenting strain, sleep problems, career uncertainty, addiction struggles, grief, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Natalie also addresses issues like self-esteem, anger, ADHD-related challenges, and compassion fatigue. Her style is warm and down-to-earth. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear tools that can be used between meetings. Natalie aims to create a respectful, curious space where people can speak honestly and try new ways of coping. Natalie blends several approaches to match each person’s needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Client-centered methods shape sessions around the person’s priorities and pace. She also draws on elements of existential and mindfulness work to help clients find meaning and calm in difficult moments. Over eight years of practice, Natalie has worked with a range of life issues and built a toolbox of techniques rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. She tailors sessions so people leave with specific, doable steps. Conversation, skill practice, and brief home exercises are common parts of her work. Natalie’s background includes international studies and a broad interest in how life context shapes mental health. She accepts sessions in English and offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to connect with people across locations.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on following the person’s priorities and pacing. The therapist listens closely, reflects understanding, and helps people steer the work in the direction they find most meaningful. This approach helps when someone needs a calm, steady space to sort out feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It involves spotting unhelpful thinking patterns, testing new actions, and practicing skills that reduce anxiety or mood symptoms. CBT is helpful for stress, worry, sleep difficulties, and many everyday challenges.

Existential ideas are used to discuss life purpose, meaning, and big transitions. These conversations can help when someone feels stuck, empty, or unsure about next steps in life.

Natalie treats finding the right approach as a shared process. She works collaboratively to match techniques to each person’s goals, preferences, and concerns. Over the first few sessions she’ll check in often and adjust the mix of tools and conversation to fit what feels most useful.

Online therapy offers practical benefits like flexible scheduling and fewer travel barriers. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief updates, daily coaching, or times when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family, or travel.
