About Nathalie

Nathalie Mac-Guffie is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 30 years of professional experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, coping with life changes, family matters, intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, anger, career questions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Nathalie works in English and practices from a client-centered stance that pays attention to emotions and attachment patterns.

Her approach emphasizes clear, practical conversation. She listens for emotions that are hard to name and helps people notice the patterns those emotions create. Sessions often include looking at how past relationships shape current reactions and finding small, workable changes to try between meetings.

Nathalie uses several methods to guide the work, including Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. These are used to help people understand feelings, shift unhelpful thoughts, and practice new ways of responding to stress or conflict.

With three decades of work, she brings a steady, practical perspective to difficult situations like trauma, grief, and caregiving strain. She also supports issues tied to adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, immigration concerns, aging, and financial stress.

Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and costs vary with location. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions that shape relationship patterns. It helps people name feelings, see how those feelings drive reactions, and practice different responses in everyday life.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current behavior. The approach is useful for understanding why certain situations trigger strong reactions and for building new ways of relating that feel more manageable.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client's own perspective. It emphasizes listening, reflecting what is said, and supporting people as they make their own decisions about change.

Choosing an approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That can mean combining EFT, attachment ideas, and CBT or mindfulness tools over time.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Prospective clients are advised to verify current session options when they schedule so they know what format will be used.
