About Natalie

Natalie Bunker is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, relationship and family concerns, parenting strains, and related issues such as sleeping problems and self-esteem difficulties.

Natalie uses clear, practical conversation to help people manage difficult feelings. She offers a calm, straightforward way of talking through what is happening now and what might help next. Sessions focus on the problems you bring and on small, manageable steps to feel steadier day to day.

Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). That means clients can expect time to be listened to without judgement, alongside tools and exercises that target unhelpful thinking and habits.

Natalie has worked across different settings and with a range of concerns, including adoption and foster care, blended family issues, domestic violence, and workplace difficulties. She also supports people dealing with OCD symptoms, panic attacks, eating and food-related issues, and challenges linked to intimacy and non-monogamous relationships.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. If you decide to proceed, you will be asked to complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment. Natalie aims for practical, steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood. Online sessions using this approach give time for the client to describe what is hard and to reflect on feelings, which can help when sorting out family and relationship issues.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, offers practical strategies. Online CBT sessions often cover simple exercises for changing thoughts and behaviours, useful for anxiety, panic, sleeping problems and low mood.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Natalie will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit your goals and preferences. She will check in about progress and adjust what you try together as needed.

The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Please confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as options are listed when you follow the online therapy steps. Online appointments can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, manage sessions around childcare or work breaks, and keep engagement steady despite a busy home life.
