About Natasha

Natasha Cunningham is a counsellor and psychotherapist who works with adults and young people aged 11 and over. She holds a Postgraduate Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Her practice addresses emotional struggles that range from everyday stress to more complex trauma and loss.

Natasha draws on a blend of approaches so each person gets what fits them best.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on practical steps and understanding what has led to the difficulty. She listens closely and helps people develop ways to cope, manage emotions and make changes that feel doable. Her background spans voluntary, statutory and personal settings, and includes seven years supporting students in higher education.

That work involved issues such as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, perfectionism and procrastination, and supporting people who are neurodivergent or living alongside neurodivergence. Earlier roles in schools, colleges and Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services gave experience working with younger clients. Natasha offers both shorter time-limited therapy and longer-term work according to what each person needs.

Typical concerns she helps with include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strains, sleeping problems, anger and addictive behaviours. Her way of working aims to be straightforward and supportive so people can build clearer ways forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Client-centred work focuses on listening, empathy and working at your pace. In practice this means the therapist follows what matters most to you and helps you find your own solutions. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and offers practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal skills to help people cope in intense moments.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, your preferences and what feels most useful. Together you will try out approaches and tailor them so therapy fits your needs rather than expecting you to fit a single method.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in or suit lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text messaging let you work between sessions, check in quickly or manage a difficult moment without scheduling a call. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and daily life.
