Female-first psychiatric care. If you’re navigating a new season of life—trying to conceive, pregnancy, or perimenopause—or looking for support with treatment of a specific condition such as PMS or PMDD, PCOS, ADHD, depression, or anxiety, I want to offer you the expertise, compassion, and genuine care you deserve. I am a Harvard-trained and board-certified psychiatrist specializing in women's mental health and reproductive psychiatry. I take a conservative approach to medication, taking the time to listen to you and help you make empowered decisions about your mental health. I provide medication management and psychotherapy through a female-first frame: putting you, your needs, and your wellness at the forefront of our work together. I view my work as an opportunity to help women feel seen and supported through the most transformative stages of their lives. My patients’ unique needs are at the forefront of my practice: hearing them when others have not listened, acknowledging their challenges when others have downplayed them, and empowering them to take control of their health, wellness, future, and family.

I specialize in working with college students and young adults, providing individual therapy in a collaborative partnership where we address your concerns and build strategies for growth and healing. Having served as a Staff Psychologist at University of Chicago Student Counseling Services, I developed a deep understanding of the unique challenges students face during this major life transition. I have extensive experience treating anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, and ADHD. My listening style is warm and interactive. I integrate psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and family systems approaches while staying attuned to contemporary social issues. Together, we'll identify patterns that aren't serving you, enhance your self-awareness and build resilience to create sustainable positive change.

I work with people who struggle with significant emotional and behavioral issues that cause them to feel disconnected from others. The people I work with often begin therapy feeling confused and hopeless about how they feel and behave in their closest relationships. They may understand something is wrong, that they are not living the life they want and having the type of relationships they long for, but nothing they find online or in self-help books seems to get to the core of what they're experiencing. They feel its time to start exploring themselves more personally with a professional. For over a decade I have worked with people in both short- and long-term therapy to explore and overcome complex emotional issues. To orient myself in this work, I utilize Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, which focuses on making sense of deeper, more systemic struggles, issues that often stem from early relational trauma. If you are tired of trying to deny the emotional turmoil you feel in both your life and in your relationships, I encourage you to reach out to me. I have significant experience working with people who come from very difficult upbringings. I have helped them find meaning in adulthood and have gratitude for the life they now live. Healing is possible.

If you have ever been at a loss for what to do or felt stuck in a situation that seemed to have no solution then please know that there is still hope. Regardless if it is complex trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression, there is hope. If you have a child with ADHD, ODD or another intellectual disability or have a history of that yourself, there is hope. It is my heart to meet everyone where they are at and to enable them to know that no matter what has happened in their life, no matter the trauma, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Hi! In therapy, I help young adults with a variety of challenges including self-esteem, anxiety, OCD, and alcohol use. If you are thinking about starting therapy, I offer a free consult to discuss your needs and availability. I generally see clients in the afternoons and evenings from my office in West Barnstable, but offer virtual availability as well. If you think I could be a good fit for you, I'd love to hear from you.

College students today face so many pressures: family and peer expectations, major life decisions, an onslaught of social media messages, and multiple socio-political crises. Though these problems are daunting, you do not need to face them alone. I would be grateful to accompany you as you respond to the questions and challenges impacting your life. In my work thus far, my clients have often felt a sense of separation or space open up between themselves and their problems. I have helped people feel “known” for who they want to be in life, separate and apart from the influence of depression, anxiety, failure, addiction, conflict, hardship, etc. This gives them more room to explore the forgotten or not-yet-developed stories of their hopes, passions, values, and purposes, which can contribute to a feeling of empowerment in facing whatever difficult experiences brought them to therapy. Though I help people navigate many different kinds of mental and emotional challenges, I have a particular interest in having therapy conversations with folks 1) concerned about the environment, 2) interested in or wondering about their spirituality/ religion, and 3) who identify as men or who are dealing with the effects of patriarchy.

Individuals we work with often come for Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, behavioral and emotional issues, conduct disorders, Adjustment and eating disorders, Bipolar, phobias and Dementia. Modalities includes Individual, family, group and couple sessions. Treatment goals are directed by the client’s motivation and shared understanding of what “healing” looks like to them. Visit options includes in person and virtual means. And clinic opens in the evenings and weekends as well, to better meet the needs of the communities served.

I provide a safe, open environment to talk about any and all experiences or feelings. Some clients come for help through a short time period, or want to look at longer term issues and to make changes in their lives. Sometimes, it is simply to talk with an unbiased, nonjudgmental listener. Whichever it may be, I am privileged to take the journey with you. I will understand you as as a whole person, rather than a series of symptoms and diagnoses. I will pay attention to your background, your strengths, and the way we work together in addition to the presenting problem/s. I have worked in a variety of settings in the area, from several college counseling centers, community mental health facilities, and private practice. I draw upon this diverse training and experience to work with my clients.

Natalia Rosenbaum uses a holistic approach to integrate talk therapy with meditation, breath work, mindfulness and inner child work.

I help clients navigate life in a way that is personally meaningful, while effectively managing the pain and difficulty that inevitably shows up along the way. I will help you get to know your mind's habits and tell the difference between helpful and unhelpful ones. We will figure out your personal priorities and use these as our roadmap. We'll work on becoming more flexible, brave, wise, purposeful and self-accepting - all in the service of what matters most to you.
