Natalie Edmondson

Often telling your story can be challenging…

I’m Natalie, and I’m here to support you with empathy, steadiness, and care as you navigate your healing journey. Beginning therapy can feel overwhelming, and I want to honour the courage it takes to take this step. You don’t have to move through this alone, together, we can explore your experiences with understanding and compassion.

Experience

I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work from Laurier University and bring 20 years of experience in the psychiatric mental health field. My work has included 15 years with the Canadian Mental Health Association and clinical roles at Parkwood Institute, where I supported individuals living with depression, anxiety, trauma, and severe psychiatric diagnoses.

My background includes crisis intervention and a deep appreciation for the impact trauma and mental health conditions have on daily life, relationships, and overall well-being.

Client Focus

I work with adults 18+ navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder, mood disorders, emotional overwhelm, and the effects of complex or longstanding psychiatric concerns. My goal is to help you access your strengths, deepen your self-understanding, and move toward meaningful growth.

Types of Therapy

My approach is self-compassionate, empathetic, and collaborative. I draw from Psychodynamic Therapy, EMDR, CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, and Somatic Experiencing. Together, we’ll tailor a therapeutic plan that honours your pace, your needs, and the experiences that have shaped you.

Issues I Support

I support clients navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder, mood disorders, emotional dysregulation, and complex psychiatric diagnoses. I also work with individuals seeking greater self-awareness, grounding, and emotional resilience.

More than just my work

I feel most grounded and at peace near the water. Living by the ocean in Nova Scotia has been a lifelong dream, and it continues to offer me a sense of calm, connection, and clarity that I bring into my therapeutic work.

Let’s Connect

If you’re ready to explore your healing journey in a safe, supportive space, I would be honoured to walk alongside you. You’re welcome to book an appointment, and together we can begin the process of deeper understanding, resilience, and self-discovery.
