About Nathan Ohren
Nathan's clinical work emphasizes somatic psychotherapy, supporting the connection between body and mind to help people process stress, anxiety, and intimacy-related concerns. He also brings experience addressing LGBTQ related issues, relationship struggles, compassion fatigue, and a broad range of related areas including attachment concerns, communication problems, and life purpose questions. Nathan aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings and move toward greater well-being.
Rather than assigning formal homework, Nathan focuses on helping clients integrate therapeutic work into everyday life so growth continues beyond scheduled sessions. He generally prefers video sessions in the early stage of therapy to build rapport, and remains open to other modalities once a communication protocol has been established. When not working, Nathan enjoys brisk walks on the nearby beach and time with his four-year-old canine companion. Prospective clients are invited to ask questions to determine whether they may be a good match.

Combining Therapeutic Approaches with Flexible Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation-related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships that developed early in life and examines how those patterns affect current connections - this approach can help with intimacy issues, attachment concerns, and communication problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration, giving clients space to lead the pace of work while the therapist offers support and reflection.
Nathan approaches finding the right method as a collaborative process. He works with clients to identify which approaches match their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts strategies as therapy progresses. This flexibility helps tailor care to each person rather than forcing a single model.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for those seeking consistent support. Video calls allow for face-to-face connection, phone sessions provide convenience, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit into busy schedules or provide accessible check-ins between sessions. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these modalities to make care more flexible and easier to attend, helping clients maintain momentum while fitting therapy into everyday life.
