Natalie DiManno | APCC

Clinical Therapist

What year did you begin with Solution Based Treatment?

I began working at SBT March 10, 2023.

What does your average day look like as a member of the team?

 As part of an amazing clinical team, I remain in contact with other staff members for various reasons to ensure a standard of care is provided to all clients.  I provide individual therapy to clients, educate and support family members, provide family therapy, and instill hope using a strengths-based approach, and by reminding them of their worth through genuine interactions.  I also facilitate mental health groups to provide education on the nature of co-occurring disorders, and assist clients in developing the skills and tools to improve their overall mental health, relationships, communication, self-esteem, and daily functioning.

Why are you passionate about addiction treatment and recovery?

My passion for this field comes from a personal history with addiction, and loved ones who never made it to recovery. My deepest desire is to effect positive change in this world by walking with those on their healing journey, and witnessing powerful transformations of the mind, body, and soul. My primary goal is to foster healing through authentic human connection, and by providing compassionate support on their journey to create a more effective and meaningful life.

What do you enjoy doing when you’re not at work?

Outside of work, I fully enjoy living life to its fullest! I love traveling, listening to live music, bowling, practicing my faith daily, spending time with my family in California and Back East, and loving on my Malamute Watt’s who is a handful to say the least.
