About Natalie
Natalie Ehrlich is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults on relationship concerns, stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, parenting pressures, and depression. Natalie also focuses on adoption and foster care issues, family of origin concerns, and challenges common to young adults and women.
Her approach is direct and conversational. Sessions aim to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits, set small goals, and try practical changes. Natalie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered and solution-focused techniques to help people notice patterns and test new responses.
Clients can expect a collaborative interaction where the therapist listens and helps clarify priorities. Natalie draws on earlier work in schools, residential programs, foster care, and outpatient mental health. She also stepped away from practice for several years to raise three children and brings that life experience into sessions.
Typical work addresses life transitions, caregiving stress, workplace burnout, and feeling stuck. Concrete tools and short experiments are common in sessions, along with conversations that help people decide what matters next. The tone is practical rather than abstract.
Natalie emphasizes goal-setting and small, measurable steps. She helps people track what changes, revise plans when needed, and build confidence through repeated practice. Her stated aim is to help clients feel more grounded and able to make decisions with clearer thinking.
How her approaches translate to online work
Many sessions use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioral changes. CBT is practical and focuses on skills people can use between appointments to reduce worry and manage mood.Client-Centered methods emphasize listening and reflecting what matters to the person in the room. This approach helps people organize their thoughts and decide which changes to try first. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on goals and brief, concrete steps to move toward those goals rather than on long histories.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting plans together.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, fewer travel minutes, or sessions without being on camera when that is helpful. Licensed professionals use the same practical exercises and goal-focused planning online as they do in person, helping people apply skills in everyday situations.
