More about William

- LCSW
My name is William Scott Natale. I have been a License Clinical Social Worker in FL since 2006. I have worked the most with clients who are coping with trauma and the result of poor or longer useful coping methods . For example, co-dependence, drug and alcohol abuse and self-harm behaviors. However, my focus with patients typically is built on communication style and following a trusted process for improved confidence and self esteem. Cognitive and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy is used most often in my practice with patients.
I am happy you are considering a more satisfying way of life. Believe me, it is my pleasure to help you do that. Together, we can look at disappointments, core beliefs that support dysfunction, and determine the best way out. All you that will be asked of you is to participate in therapy with the courage and open mindedness needed to be honest about what is getting in the way and be willing to cope with the discomfort that often is associated with learning something new. I will do the work to provide help to you, All you need to do is participate, and again it will be my pleasure.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall rating:
This is my second time working with William. He is attentive, thoughtful and patient. He is an active listener who tried to understand and present multiple points of view while focusing on my health.
It has been wonderful working with Scott.
I did not think Scott would be a good fit for me at first, he may not have the same lived experience as me, though he gave me insights and new perspectives. He gave me the courage to make difficult changes in my life, do what's good for me and come to terms with feelings I could not understand. Thanks to him I am far happier, with a better understanding of myself and those around me. He helped me recognise negative thoughts and feelings inside myself, allowing me and my father to repair and rebuild a stronger and better relationship than before. And I wish both you and him all the best going forward.
Better than most therapists or social workers I've worked with in years. Scott is great.
William is wise and compassionate. He helped me meet my goals for therapy.
Mr. Scott is a real good therapist, he's patient and caring, very professional, and I have confidence in his expertise, I've been working with him for more than a year now, and I find working with him very rewarding
Scott has been so great for me to work with. The way he has helped me change the way I perceive things in my life has been both challenging and rewarding. I can’t help but to notice the growth in myself and how I handle various obstacles in my life.
Really great person who actively listens to what I have to say.
Great listener and his previous-session summaries are very helpful. He's very positive and assists me in working through issues and is able to provide valuable insight and guidance when I have trouble formulating my thoughts cohesively.
William "Scott" Natale is the best therapist I have worked with in many years. I always learn more about myself and have a positive outlook on things after each session. I have rarely looked forward to therapy sessions in recent years until now.
Is a good listener and has helped me through a very tough time in my life. Thank you!
So far the therapy has been very helpful ! I have been scheduling consistent sessions and they are helping me identify concerns and areas of improvement. I appreciate Scott for helping me!
Scott has been a great deal of help to me every week. I always look forward to speaking to him about all things and helps me put my issues or views into perspective. The weekly video calls help me in being accountable of things that I may be working on and then discuss the results the following week. It really helps. Thank you Scott!
Scott has given me the tools to be the person I want to be. Through assertiveness and self-care. It hasn't been easy finding a therapist, but I'm grateful for Scott. He's challenged me in ways that have made me grow. His way of listening is in a caring way and his examples would put things into perspective right away. I'd strongly recommend Scott, he's been incredible.
Mr. Scott is a good listener, he's very caring and dedicated. And he's been very helpful and supportive in lots of the very difficult times I've been through. And truly helped me find ways to deal with lots of challenges and difficulties
Scott (this is the name he does by) has been wonderful. He listens well, provides great advice and feedback including written follow ups. He helped me get through one of the most challenging times of my life and now I am back to living life and celebrating each day. Thanks Scott!
So compassionate. Extremely helpful.
So far so good Scott.
Good
I'd absolutely recommend Mr Scott to a friend or a loved one, he's very understanding, he listens, and very open and honest. he helped me figure out ways to take better care of myself and see things in myself that was difficult for me to notice, I have a lot of respect and appreciation for him and his help and support.
He cares. He really does. Its my first experience with.. all of this really, and Scott really puts the time and effort to show that he cares, that hes there for you, and that he understands.
Thank you, I have no other therapists to compare things to but it so far this has been helpful in identifying issues and guiding to insights.
He makes me feel so relieved to have finally found a therapist who makes me feel heard. I look forward to our sessions every week as I know for sure I'll feel better post the session. And he has such a lovely and gentle vibe. Absolutely wonderful.
Very open and supportive person to talk with, as a gay man I find it intimidating to talk about my personal life and felt very comfortable and respected in all our conversations
1 exercise and two sessions and some good directions and ways to work on myself popped up already. Great and thank you!
Mr Scott was my very first online therapist and he has been giving me such a positive impression. He is supportive and dedicating and truly cares for your concerns. Wish you health and success always, Mr Scott!
William / Scott is a great therapist!
Good Dr. I have a lot of time with him.
He's very patient and he genuinely listens, very dedicated, compassionate, caring, and good at his job, I'd totally recommend him to a friend or a loved one.
Mr. Natale has been excellent at honing in on the therapeutic discussion of who I am and where I come from and what my honest truth is.
Three sessions in and I feel supported and listened to. Mr. Natale is an exceptional and compassionate psychotherpaist.
Very easy to talk to
William Scott Natale is empathic, caring but above all he listens and values what you say. I’ve seen exponential change in myself thanks to his consultation
