About Natalie
Natalie Kramer is an LCSW based in Indiana who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and relationship concerns. She also supports those facing parenting strain, career questions, coping with life changes, and issues with self-esteem or intimacy. Natalie blends practical coaching with clinical care and writes clearly about steps people can take right away.
She brings nine years of experience working in community mental health and within the criminal justice system.
Background and approach
That background exposed her to a wide range of concerns, from mood disorders and substance use to trauma and compassion fatigue. Natalie uses that experience to tailor sessions to each person's needs. Natalie’s style is warm and interactive.
She aims to listen first, then offer tools people can use between sessions. She values respect, empathy, and straightforward feedback in sessions. Her approach draws from Emotionally-Focused Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing.
Sessions focus on building awareness, learning new coping skills, and strengthening emotional connection where it matters most. She also brings coaching skills and teaching experience from work with the John Maxwell team. That background shapes how she structures goals and tracks progress with clients.
Natalie frames change as a step-by-step process and partners with people ready to take those steps. People who want clear tools, steady support, and a focus on emotional experience may find her approach helpful. She works in English and provides video, phone, chat, and messaging options for ongoing work.

Online support
How Emotion-Focused and Cognitive Work Translate Online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions in the moment to improve relationships and self-understanding. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in how they react and practice new ways to connect with their feelings and with others.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and offers concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns. Delivered online, CBT often includes short exercises, thought records, and practice between sessions to build new habits.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy brings skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal communication. Those skills adapt well to coaching in between sessions via messaging or brief check-ins to support real-time use of techniques.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying one approach for a few sessions and adjusting as progress is made.
Online formats offer flexibility for different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low, live chat fits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing coaching or reminders. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping focus on practical skills and emotional change.
