About Nathalie
Nathalie Donny is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 18 years of experience helping people manage depression, anxiety, trauma, and life stress. She works with adults who are facing relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, career transitions, and issues tied to self-esteem and identity.

She combines practical therapy skills with coaching techniques to help people move through big life changes and toward clearer goals. Nathalie also supervises master’s level counselors who are pursuing licensure.
In sessions she focuses on building useful skills and real-world practices. She draws on cognitive behavioral tools to notice unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses mindfulness and acceptance-based strategies to reduce suffering tied to distressing emotions.
Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She listens closely and works collaboratively to create steps that fit daily life. Clients can expect straightforward explanations, skill practice, and support in applying what they learn between sessions.
Nathalie offers services in English and French and practices in Florida. Before starting she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire so sessions can be scheduled according to therapist availability. She notes that fees vary with location and scheduling and that sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Nathalie uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that cause distress. CBT is hands-on and focuses on practical skills like tracking thoughts, testing beliefs, and trying new behaviors to see what helps.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which teaches people to make room for difficult feelings while taking action toward their values. ACT often helps with anxiety, depression, and long-standing patterns such as codependency by clarifying what matters and building small steps toward it.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Nathalie will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences and then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can shift as sessions reveal what is most useful.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since current session formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and travel, and it can shorten commutes or allow a quicker check-in on a busy day. Ask about session options when completing the matching questionnaire so scheduling aligns with daily life.
