ABOUT
About
People usually find their way here through a referral, a workshop, or a search for something that offers a new pathway to wholeness. Here’s a bit about me and how I work.
Who I am
I’m Natalie Engler, LICSW, a therapist, energy practitioner, and systemic family constellation facilitator based in the Boston area. Certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatically trained, I help people untangle patterns that talk alone hasn’t been able to shift. I am also a practitioner of Advanced Integrated Energy Therapy® (IET), Reiki, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT, or “tapping”).
I’m also a lifelong seeker, a forever student, and someone who has always believed that the clinical and the mystical can coexist.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent eight years teaching Vinyasa and Restorative yoga, including three years offering one-on-one sessions to women navigating infertility. Yoga showed me how much the body holds, and led to a desire to deepen my understanding through clinical training.
How I see my role
I believe healing is a process that already lives inside each of us. Whether you’re coming for psychotherapy, constellations, energy, sound, or some combination, our work together is about helping you build your capacity, so you can release what you’re ready to let go of and draw on the strengths you already have. My role isn’t to act as a healer, but as a facilitator, holding space for you to access your own wisdom and wholeness.
“If you look deeply into the palm of your hand, you will see your parents and all generations of your ancestors.”
