Meet Natalie Scetinkinova, LMHC, NCC

I’m Natalie Scetinkinova, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC), providing online therapy to adults and couples throughout Florida.

My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by both academic training and a deep commitment to continued learning. Before entering the mental health field, I earned a degree in International Business in Europe, an experience that broadened my appreciation for different cultures, perspectives, and life experiences. This foundation continues to inform my work, helping me approach each client with openness, curiosity, and respect for their unique background.

After completing a dual graduate program in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Marriage & Family Therapy, I continued to deepen my clinical knowledge through advanced training in trauma through the Bessel van der Kolk Trauma Research Foundation, Gottman Method Couples Therapy (Level 1), Energy Psychology, and clinical hypnotherapy through the Institute of Interpersonal Hypnotherapy in Florida. Ongoing professional education remains an important part of my practice, allowing me to provide thoughtful, evidence-based care.

A special focus of my work is helping women heal from the effects of the mother wound and supporting men who want to function more effectively by developing practical skills to improve their relationships, emotional well-being, and everyday lives. I also help individuals break unhealthy patterns, manage compulsive or addictive behaviors, and build healthier ways of coping. Couples are welcomed into a nonjudgmental environment where both partners can feel heard, understood, and supported as they work toward healthier communication and stronger relationships.

Therapy with me is compassionate, collaborative, practical, and tailored to your unique needs. As an active and engaged therapist, I don’t simply listen—I ask questions, offer insights, teach practical tools, and gently challenge patterns that may no longer be serving you. Together, we’ll work to better understand what’s keeping you stuck, develop healthier ways of coping, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change.

While therapy is not a quick fix, many clients describe feeling as though a weight has been lifted from their shoulders as they gain insight, process difficult experiences, and begin responding to life in new ways. Lasting healing takes time, but you don’t have to carry everything on your own.

Whether you’re seeking support as an individual or as a couple, my goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel understood, challenged when appropriate, and supported as you move toward the life and relationships you want.

If you think we may be a good fit, I invite to schedule a complimentary consultation. I look forward to meeting you.
