Aparna Natarajan, LMSW(She/Her/Hers)

Aparna Natarajan works with adults navigating trauma, identity, and life transitions, supporting them in understanding their experiences and building a more grounded and meaningful sense of self. She has experience working with individuals managing anxiety, depression, PTSD, family and relationship challenges, intimate partner violence, and the impacts of complex trauma. Many of the individuals she works with are navigating high expectations, internal pressure, and questions around identity and self-worth.‍

During her training, Aparna worked in both community-based and hospital settings, providing trauma-informed care to diverse populations, including immigrants, refugees, and survivors of intimate partner and sexual violence. Her work is deeply informed by her commitment to culturally responsive and trauma-informed care, and she takes an integrative approach, drawing from psychodynamic theory, DBT, CBT, and somatic practices.‍

Aparna approaches therapy as a collaborative and empowering process, helping clients build insight, strengthen coping strategies, and move toward the lives they want for themselves. She believes healing happens within a safe and attuned therapeutic relationship and is committed to creating a space where clients feel seen, understood, and supported.
