Natalie Santos, LCSW

Clinical Supervisor

I help people navigate life’s transitions, from starting a new job or becoming a parent to coping with a serious illness. My goal is to help you understand how these changes affect your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors while finding ways to cope that feel right for you.

I draw from cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, strengths-based, and meaning-centered approaches to tailor our work to your needs. I also bring humor and warmth into the process, creating room for connection even during difficult moments.
