Therapists in Atlantic City, NJ

Thank you for reviewing my listing and considering use of my services. I have been a licensed clinical psychologist for over 15 years. I have extensive experience with patients from all walks of life. My approach is typically cognitive-behavioral in the context of a supportive/empathic relationship. Due to my varied background as a psychology instructor and supervisor of interns and postdoctoral fellows, I also bring a distinctly psycho-educational approach to my clinical practice; I enjoy teaching about psychology and behavior in the service of helping people to gain insight and make positive change in their lives.

I am a dually licensed counselor in New Jersey, specializing in addiction, mental health, and co-occurring disorders for adolescents and adults.

Also, I am a certified/approved clinical supervisor for counselors and interns seeking licensure as a CADC/LCADC or LAC/LPC.

Coming from a diverse and experienced background, my qualifications and training in various disciplines have helped me to expand on an innate ability to cater to a client’s individual needs and potential. I do not believe “one size fits all” which means that each client is given services unique to them and the intricacies of their life, their experiences. This approach is coupled with an individual professional style and conscientious quality of service. I run a “gold standard” practice with a personal belief of “people before profits”. Quite simply, I care about people and help people to care about themselves.

Conflict is a normal process of life, but there are times where unresolved conflict combined with major life transitions such as divorce, a new relationship or family issues can be overwhelming. Perhaps you are starting over again from an abusive relationship among other life stressors leaving you with a sense of uncertainty. My goal is to help you overcome the obstacles that seem to be draining you. Together, we will navigate the process of sustainable change and create the change you desire in your life. I look forward to teaching you how to resolve conflict in your relationships and most importantly, within yourself.

Some fights aren’t meant to be fought alone.

With the goal of respecting each person’s individual uniqueness I utilize a variety of therapeutic methods to best fit your personal needs.

Sometimes you just need someone to talk to. Sometimes you just need someone to listen. Sometimes you just need to “get it off your chest”. I believe counseling is what you make it. Whatever direction works best for you, is the one I will use. I will always meet you where you are and we will walk this journey together. I have worked with a multitude of people including teenagers, young adults, mature adults and elderly in many different areas including issues related to coming of age, depression, family conflict, incarceration and anxiety to name a few.

Hi, my name is Natalie Berrette. I am a Licensed Social Worker with a graduate degree in Social Work (MSW) from Rutgers University in New Brunswick. After spending a decade counseling individuals living with physical and psychological illnesses, I have gained extensive experience in creating trusting relationships that foster opportunities for exploration, reflection, and growth. I believe in using a holistic approach combined with various evidence-based interventions to assure clients have a safe space to gain introspection and healing.

When it comes to your well-being, it is important to have a knowledgeable professional that you can turn to. I bring an authentic and safe space to clinical settings and have experience working virtually in offices, schools, and within the community. I believe strongly in creating a trusting environment, which is fundamental to the foundation of our work together. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship stress you're not alone. Together we can work on getting to the root cause of your challenges and explore life's triggers in a creative way.

My only expectation of my clients is that they come to sessions with an open mind and a willingness to grow. I strive to provide a safe and supportive environment where you are comfortable to speak your mind without fear of judgement. I truly feel that I learn something from each of my clients and believe that each client experience strengthens my abilities as a clinician.
