Background and approach

She combines Client-Centred Therapy with cognitive techniques to notice how thoughts influence feelings and actions. For those affected by traumatic memories she offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as one of the pathways to reduce the intensity of upsetting recollections. Her practice is collaborative and paced to each person.

Natasha helps people identify small changes that ease day-to-day struggles and builds on practical coping skills. She also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, codependency and communication problems that can strain relationships. Natasha has worked with a wide range of backgrounds and sexual orientations and accepts international clients.

Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different routines and needs. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To start, clients select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Natasha aims to make the first steps straightforward and manageable.

How Natasha blends approaches for online support

Natasha uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a listening space where a person leads the conversation. This approach focuses on understanding each person’s experience and helping them feel heard, which suits concerns like low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and life transitions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice thought patterns that maintain anxiety or depression. CBT offers practical steps and simple exercises to change unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours between sessions. For people affected by traumatic memories, she offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as a way to reduce the emotional charge of upsetting memories and improve day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Natasha will discuss these methods and help decide what fits best based on goals, preferences and the issues you bring. The choice is collaborative and can change as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls suit deeper conversations and visual connection, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options aim to fit therapy around work, travel and family commitments while keeping the focus on practical steps and emotional change.
