Natasha Mcgee, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Natasha!

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, and I look forward to providing you with a space where you may feel heard and safe.

My focus

My client focus is typically individual sessions with adolescents and adults who are experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. I tailor sessions to meet the needs of each age group, ensuring that therapy is age-appropriate and effective.

My approach

I utilize CBT, ACT, and Client-centered approaches in my practice. A quote that references CBT states, "Happiness is not dependent on the good or bad opinion of others, but instead upon your actions.” Acceptance and Commitment Therapy looks at struggles head on how can we accept and live alongside rather than avoid or dismiss them.

My communication style

I meet you where you are, while gentle nudges to challenge, question, and increase insight are very much a part of our therapeutic relationship.

My journey to mental healthcare

Being in a session where I assist someone in challenging false narratives they've been told, ask that question that illuminates the room, or provide the support they've never had is why I became a therapist. Self-realization and acceptance are powerful.

My goals for you

Clients reach their goals by remaining realistic, accountable, and focused. My role in assisting with goals is to be supportive and maintain a space where shortcomings are a part of the process, and wins are celebrated!

Our first session

During an initial session with me, my clients can expect a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment where they feel empowered to share their emotions and concerns. We start by discussing what brought them to therapy and any specific issues or goals they may currently have.
