In Sight Counseling Connections

In Sight Counseling Connections is dedicated to providing compassionate and effective counseling services in the Denver, Colorado area. Founded by Natalie Van Note, LPC, the practice specializes in guiding individuals through the complexities of post-divorce life and navigating co-parenting challenges. Natalie believes that everyone experiences times when they feel "stuck" and lack the tools necessary to navigate difficult life events. Her role as a therapist is to help individuals identify their existing strengths, develop new coping mechanisms, and acquire the skills needed to thrive and live fulfilling lives.

Areas of Specialty

Natalie's practice focuses on two primary areas: co-parenting coaching and post-divorce counseling.

Co-Parenting Counseling

The end of a marriage can be a deeply emotional and challenging experience, particularly when it comes to navigating co-parenting responsibilities. Communication breakdowns, conflicting parenting styles, and ongoing legal matters can exacerbate the stress of separation. Natalie utilizes her extensive experience as a therapist, child and family investigator, divorce mediator, parental visitation supervisor, decision-maker, and parenting coordinator to provide invaluable guidance to co-parenting individuals. She recognizes the unique challenges that arise post-divorce and moves beyond the legalistic perspective to offer practical strategies and emotional support. Natalie empowers co-parents to develop healthy communication patterns, establish clear boundaries, and create a stable and nurturing environment for their children despite the separation.

Post-Divorce Counseling

The initial aftermath of a divorce can be incredibly overwhelming. Many individuals experience intense emotions such as anger, sadness, trauma, depression, or even suicidal thoughts. They may feel lost and unsure how to move forward with their lives. Natalie specializes in helping clients navigate the acute phases of post-divorce trauma. She creates a safe and supportive space for individuals to process their emotions, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and begin rebuilding their lives. Her approach focuses on crisis resolution, providing individuals with the tools they need to regain a sense of stability, manage their emotions effectively, and ultimately find a path toward healing and growth.

Other Areas of Focus

In addition to her specialty areas, Natalie also provides behavioral therapy and emotional support to individuals experiencing various mental health challenges. These include:

• Bipolar disorder
• Depression
• Borderline Personality Disorder
• PTSD and Trauma
• Anxiety Disorders

Natalie creates personalized treatment plans that incorporate evidence-based therapies, such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These approaches provide practical skills and strategies to manage symptoms, improve emotional well-being, and enhance overall quality of life.
