Hi, I’m Natalia Mirkowicz, M.A., LMFT, LPC

I see you with your demanding lifestyle. More than once you’ve considered (or tried) therapy only for that to drop off. Maybe asking for help isn’t natural for you, you’d rather figure it out on your own. Or you’ve felt misunderstood and don’t know if you can really let someone in.

You experience life deeply and really care about your people. Maybe you just bounce between numb and overwhelmed. You work hard, expect greatness and don’t feel confident that you’re doing enough.

You exist within relationships and environments that shape and impact you. Our unique relationship can be a space to explore, rest, connect and grow. My clients describe me as genuine, warm, and patient. You can expect me to encourage and challenge you, share simple attachment-based wisdom, and laugh with you.

My Background and Approach

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Texas. As a highly sensitive person (HSP) myself, I have always been easily attuned to the emotions and the world around me. This has made me deeply interested in understanding family dynamics, the mind/body connection, and eager for everyone to have a seat at the table.

I'm trained in EMDR and have spent years exploring how trauma and stress affect the nervous system. For the past 7+ years I’ve primarily worked with people who identify as highly sensitive, gifted, ADHD and/or twice-exceptional (2e). My clients experience the world in vast and incredible ways. Yet, I’ve seen how living in society that isn’t designed with neurodiversity in mind can create internalized shame, trauma and isolation.

I easily connect with young people and enjoy watching clients find their voice and confidence. I often work with teens and adults who are motivated, yet have a hard time understanding their own quirks and inherent worth.

Who I Work With

I provide neurodiversity-affirming therapy for teens (15+), college students, adults and parents-of-teens in Westlake and across the greater Austin area-including Circle C, Downtown, UT/Hyde Park, and virtual sessions for clients anywhere in Texas.

Whether you’re seeking EMDR to calm your body and nervous system or talk therapy that honors your unique brain and way of being, I’m honored to help.

A Little More About Me

I’m a dog-lover and Aggie, who has enjoyed living in a city of Longhorns since 2014. I am a bilingual, second-generation/ third-culture American and travel to visit my extended family in Poland. I value spending time with loved ones, travel and fixating on new hobbies like yoga and aerial sling. I recharge my battery by watching low-stakes baking shows and spending time in nature.
