About Natasha
Natasha Lewis is a BACP counsellor with nine years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief and parenting pressures. She also offers support for addiction-related issues, intimacy concerns and difficulties linked to sexuality and identity.
Her approach is client-led and integrative. Sessions focus on what the person wants to address, whether that is difficult feelings from the past, current struggles at home, or plans for the future. Conversations use reflection, processing and practical exploration of thoughts and feelings.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is used when couples want to understand and change negative cycles of interaction. EFT helps partners notice the patterns that escalate conflict and practise different ways of responding to one another.
Cognitive work and psychodynamic ideas are drawn on when helpful. That can mean looking at how current behaviour links to past relationships, or testing out small changes in thinking and behaviour that ease day-to-day stress.
Natasha will suggest other services when these would help alongside counselling. Her work includes attention to attachment concerns, blended family issues, communication and commitment problems, and fatherhood-related topics. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Natasha draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help partners notice and change negative interaction cycles. EFT focuses on emotions between people and supports building different, more constructive responses in relationships. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas to address unhelpful thinking and reduce stress and anxiety. CBT informed techniques involve noticing thoughts and trying small, practical changes to behaviour that can ease day-to-day difficulties. Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss which methods suit the concerns, goals and preferences of the person and make choices together. That collaborative process helps shape what is tried in sessions and how progress is reviewed. Confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not specify formats. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around family and work commitments, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and avoid travel. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt pace and methods so sessions fit with everyday life.Areas of focus
