Natalie Summit , LPC, LCMHC

Natalie Summit is a licensed mental health professional with 29 years of experience helping individuals, families, and first responders navigate difficult life challenges. She holds credentials as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), state licenses that qualify her to provide professional counseling and clinical mental health services. Her career began in community mental health, where she developed a foundation in supporting people through a wide range of concerns, and later shifted toward law enforcement mental health work, blending community care with support for officers and agency staff.

After an enriching 20-year tenure in a local law enforcement agency, Natalie retired from that role in 2019, having focused extensively on crisis intervention and compassionate service. Over the course of her work she has supported people through mental illness, addiction, domestic violence, sexual crimes, child and elder abuse or neglect, and tragic losses including suicide, homicide, and accidents. Those experiences have reinforced her belief in human resilience, the importance of being heard, and the willingness of people to explore options when trust and respect are present.

Natalie brings a culturally informed, creative approach to care and has a particular passion for assisting both sworn and civilian first responders with the distinctive stresses of their roles. She provides telehealth counseling options and works with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and family issues, grief, parenting challenges, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her practice emphasizes practical strategies, empathy, and collaborative problem solving to support clients in pursuing meaningful change.
