Hi, I’m Natalie Wan
LISW-CP, LCSW
Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. Therapy is personal, and you deserve a space where you can show up as you are without worrying about whether you “fit in.”
Through my own experiences with chronic pain and anxiety, I understand that the things we carry can affect far more than one part of our lives—they can change our relationships, routines, sense of identity, and even how we imagine the future.
You don’t have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door. You can come as you are and bring whatever you’re carrying that day. We can make space for the anxiety, frustration, grief, uncertainty, or whatever else may be showing up.
I don’t believe therapy is one-size-fits-all. We’ll figure out what you need from therapy and move at a pace that feels manageable, while recognizing that growth can sometimes involve a little discomfort. My goal is to create a brave space where you feel supported enough to sit with what’s difficult, recognize what may need to change, and take meaningful steps forward. There’s also room for humor, connection, and simply being human along the way.
You don’t have to carry everything on your own. Together, we can make sense of what you’re navigating and work toward a life that feels more manageable, meaningful, and like your own.

My Approach
At the heart of my work, I believe that every individual deserves to be:
Seen for their unique history.
Heard without judgment.
Accepted exactly as they are.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in getting to know you as a person. I’ll meet you where you are while also helping you notice patterns, question thoughts that may be keeping you stuck, and consider perspectives that can be difficult to see on your own. Sometimes that means sitting with what’s hard, and sometimes it means gently challenging you when I think it could help you move toward the changes you want to make.
My specialties
I specialize in supporting teens and adults through anxiety, depression, chronic pain and illness, and the many transitions life brings our way— career pivots, health diagnoses, relocations, breakups, and the quieter identity shifts that come with any major change. Utilizing a multi-modality approach, we will work together on what best suits you during your healing journey. Through my education I have been trained in:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Together, we will find what works best for your needs as we begin exploring your concerns in session.
