About Natalie
I've been in the counselling chair, and it changed me from the inside out!
Hi, Im Natalie and my son brought me to counselling. I never set out to be a counsellor, however in 2002 my son died at 3 days old and changed my life completely.
​
It took me a couple of years to decide to have counselling. I didn't need it. I was doing ok, and why would I want to tell a complete stranger about my personal life?
​
It turned out that it was easier to talk to that stranger than my friends and family. I could talk without upsetting them. I could say anything and talk about anyone. And my counsellor wasn't afraid to ask me questions that would make me cry. This was the power of the therapy!
​
So, now I'm that stranger listening to other strangers telling me about their personal life.
I can tell you that I know how scary it is to pick up the phone, to make that first contact, then to sit in the chair.
​
But what a relief; I did it and now I'm here helping others'.
