About Natasha

Natasha Deshommes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who focuses on practical help for everyday challenges. She approaches sessions with respect and compassion, and she tailors conversations to each person's needs. Natasha speaks English and Haitian Creole and has eight years of experience in clinical work. Natasha helps people facing family conflict, grief, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, stress, and anxiety. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, parenting strains, career questions, and major life changes. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, blended family issues, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, and immigration issues. Her style centers on listening and working together on clear goals. Natasha uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and on dialectical behavior skills to build emotion regulation and coping tools. In sessions she may use motivational interviewing to help people find motivation for change and narrative therapy to help reframe difficult stories. She aims to make therapy feel understandable and usable, not full of jargon. Natasha describes starting therapy as a courageous step, and she frames her role as a supportive partner in that process. Clients who want to begin can expect straightforward planning, practical coping ideas, and adjustments when needed to fit their goals and life situation.

How Natasha’s approaches fit online therapy

Natasha uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to make online sessions feel focused and useful. Client-centered work means the session follows what matters most to the person, with the therapist listening and reflecting to clarify priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and build specific behavior changes for problems like anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will help clients choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. This is a collaborative process where goals are checked and changed when needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or between commitments. Some formats can also permit shorter check-ins or audio-only calls when camera time is difficult. Ask about available formats when scheduling so sessions match daily routines and practical needs.
