Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Natasha uses client-centered therapy, which places the client at the heart of the process and emphasizes empathetic listening and unconditional acceptance - this approach helps people explore their feelings, build self-understanding, and improve relationship dynamics. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical, goal-oriented method that helps clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop coping strategies for anxiety, depression, stress, and everyday challenges. For clients dealing with trauma, Natasha offers EMDR, a structured therapy that supports the processing of distressing memories and can reduce the intensity of trauma-related reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Natasha works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication preferences. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from the Liverpool region or abroad, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with registered professionals and therapists who use the approaches described above.
