COUNSELLING, SOMATIC THERAPY, COACHING, GROUP FACILITATION
Natalia Napper
Natalia (they/them) is a queer, trauma-informed PACFA-registered counsellor, somatic therapist and group facilitator. They offer therapy services both in person to those local to the Sunshine Coast, and online.
Natalia has been facilitating somatic practices since 2006 as a certified yoga, breathwork and mindfulness teacher. They have experienced firsthand how these practices can complement talk therapy to help shift trauma stored unconsciously in the body. They integrate talk therapy, breathwork, body awareness and movement as tools to transform and elevate the lives of their clients.
Natalia’s focus and specialisation in the LGBTQIA+ community are the extension of their lived experience, innate passion for transformation and growth, and facilitating an authentic expression of all aspects of self. They work with late-in-life queer and genderqueer people, those exploring non-traditional relationship and family structures, and alternative lifestyles. Their integrative method encompasses several therapeutic frameworks including:
* The developmental model of relational therapy
* Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
* Positive psychology
* Somatic Internal Family Systems (SIFS)
* Motivational interviewing
* Emotion Focused Therapy.
All of Natalia’s work is embedded in best practices on Gender, Sexual and Relationship Diversity (GSRD) framework.
