Dr. Natasha Kruse

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who provides therapy to Adults and Couples. I primarily work with my clients to gain insight into their presenting problem and related issues through examining underlying patterns and behaviors. I believe this process is essential to create positive change in people's lives. For this change to occur, I center therapy on creating a safe environment where clients can explore areas of their lives and themselves that they want to deeply understand. My approach is to help create a balance between my clients' thoughts and feelings, while helping them stay connected in their relationships. I work with individuals who are having sexual problems related to level of desire, performance, pain, or personal sexual preferences that may be causing stress or discomfort in their lives. I am very familiar with alternative sexual lifestyles and communities (including polyamory, open relationships and other non-traditonal relationships) and enjoy helping individuals and couples work through struggles related to kink, BDSM, sexuality, and other associated issues. I also work with many individuals who want to change their drinking or drug use or who are sober and want to understand and heal from the impact addiction has had on their lives. I work with couples who want to be proactive in addressing potential roadblocks in their relationship as well as couples who are considering whether they want to move forward together in their future. My belief is that life is too short and in order to find the happiness you want, you, as an individual, need to take every step to heal, grow and move in a positive direction in your relationships and within yourself.
