Why Resilient Roots?

Nurturing Growth ~ Strengthening Resilience

Welcome to your judgment-free zone—where feelings are valid, growth is celebrated, and awkward silences are totally okay (we’ve mastered the art of the compassionate head nod). We’re here to make therapy feel less like a chore and more like a meaningful conversation—with someone who actually listens and doesn’t just say “mm-hmm” every five seconds.

We work with you, not on you—no cookie-cutter advice or one-size-fits-all solutions. Just real talk, tailored support, and goals that make sense for you. Whether you’re untangling anxiety, navigating depression, processing trauma, or just figuring out what’s next, we’re on your team (think: supportive sidekick energy with a dash of humor).

Basically, we’re here to help you heal, grow, and feel more like yourself—just with a little extra resilience and maybe a few solid coping skills in your back pocket.

I'm Natalie Thomas, and I founded Resilient Roots Counseling in 2021 with a vision of creating a practice where therapy feels approachable, practical, and maybe even enjoyable.

As a licensed clinical therapist who believes in both evidence-based techniques and keeping it real (occasional curse words included), I wanted to build a space where clients feel seen, heard, and supported without the clinical stuffiness.

At Resilient Roots, we understand that seeking therapy takes courage, and we honor that by meeting you exactly where you are. Whether you're new to therapy or have tried it before without finding the right fit, our growing team of compassionate professionals is dedicated to helping you discover your inner strength while providing the skills and support you need to thrive.

🐾 Meet Charlie

The Best Four-Legged Therapy Companion

Around here, healing doesn’t just happen through words—it also happens through connection, presence, and sometimes, a very good boy named Charlie.

Charlie is a calm and affectionate Border Collie/Lab mix who joins Natalie in sessions as a comforting presence. Whether he’s curled up nearby or quietly offering support with a nuzzle or kiss, his gentle nature helps create a space that feels safe, relaxed, and grounded.

Clients say Charlie helps them feel more at ease—and we couldn’t agree more.
