Natalia Mumlauri Stewart
Gestalt Therapist in Practice, MS
I am Natalia, a Gestalt therapist trained on both sides of the Atlantic: in the vibrant, dialogic tradition of the European Gestalt community and the creative, body-aware lineage of the American West Coast.
This double root has shaped the way I work: deeply present, warmly curious, and always grounded in the here-and-now of what is alive between us.
In the room with me, nothing is “too much,” “too little,” or “wrong.”
Your tears, your anger, your silence, your laughter, even your wish to run away; everything is welcome material for awareness and contact.
I don’t interpret you from a distance. I meet you at the edge where your experience is unfolding right now, and together we explore how you stop yourself, how you protect yourself, and how you long to be fully seen and met.
My training taught me that healing does not happen by fixing something broken, but by restoring interrupted contact: contact with your feelings, your body, your history, and, most importantly, contact with another human being who is willing to stay present with you in whatever arises.
Whether you come because of anxiety that tightens your chest, relationships that leave you confused, grief that still lives in your throat, or simply the quiet sense that “there must be more to my life,” I will walk beside you with curiosity, respect, and a steady belief that your organism already knows the direction toward wholeness.
You don’t need to have the words. You only need to bring yourself, exactly as you are, in this moment.
And when you’re ready for this, the chair opposite me is waiting.
With warmth and presence,

How I work
As a Gestalt therapist in practice I work in a way that is both grounded and deeply relational. Our focus is on what is alive in the moment—what you feel, think, and experience as we sit together.
Together, we explore whatever comes up, helping you understand yourself deeply and find new ways of responding. You gain awareness of patterns and open the door to meaningful change.
Languages and Fees
I offer therapy in 3 languages - English, Georgian, and Russian. You’re welcome to speak in whichever of the three languages feels most like “you”—sometimes the right words come more easily that way.
I work with self-paying clients, which allows us to keep the process private, flexible, and fully focused on your needs.
Research Participation
As part of my ongoing research, I offer a small number of therapy spaces for those open to participating in the process. This includes up to 10 complimentary sessions.
If you feel comfortable contributing to this work, it can be a way to both receive support and be part of a deeper exploration of the therapeutic process. We can talk through what this involves and ensure it feels right for you.
