Holistic Psychotherapist for anxiety, trauma, disordered eating, body image, shadow work and spirituality.

Hello and welcome!

If you’re feeling stuck in cycles of shame, burnout, emotional overwhelm, or coping behaviors that no longer serve you—you’re not alone. Whether you're navigating disordered eating, codependent relationship patterns, spiritual emergence, or the long echoes of childhood trauma, I'm here to walk alongside you with care and clarity.

I'm Natalie Forsythe, an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist passionate about creating space for deep healing and transformation. I joined The Holistic Counseling Center in 2025 and am supervised by Kim Burris, LMFT #98927. 

With over a decade of experience as a coach and psychoeducator, I offer holistic psychotherapy for adults and couples navigating: Childhood Trauma, Anxiety, Codependent Patterns, Burnout, Shadow Work, Eating & Body Image Struggles, Spiritual Emergence, Self-Worth, Boundaries, Life Purpose, and Recovery.

I believe healing happens when we work with the mind, body, emotions, nervous system, and spirit. My approach honors the interplay between psychological, physiological, and existential dimensions of experience. I weave together evidence-based therapy including Internal Family Systems (IFS), CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care with somatic practices, mindfulness, and transpersonal approaches to support you in moving from survival mode to a more soul-aligned way of living.

I see psychotherapy as an alchemical process between two humans, transforming the inevitable pain and suffering of life into a deeper sense of meaning, connection, and embodied freedom.

When not in session, you can find me hiking through redwoods, propagating succulents and marveling at their fractal magic, snorkeling in the ocean, or quietly lighting a candle for my evening rituals. I've also built out my minivan into a micro camper and love finding myself at the end of a dirt road in some national forest for the weekend.

I currently offer in-person therapy in Berkeley and virtual counseling throughout California. I am accepting new clients and have late afternoon and evening availability. Book a free consultation call to get started.
