About Natasha
Natasha Cunningham is a counsellor and psychotherapist with ten years of clinical experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She provides one-to-one support to adults and young people aged 11 and over. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and parenting concerns among other life pressures.
Her background includes roles across voluntary, statutory and personal sectors. She has spent several years supporting students in higher education with issues like perfectionism, procrastination and mood difficulties.
Background and approach
Earlier roles involved work in schools, colleges and child and adolescent mental health services. Naturally conversational, she uses an integrative approach that draws on a few well-known methods. That means she adapts how she works to what each person needs rather than using a single fixed style.
Clients can expect straightforward discussion about goals and steps to try between sessions. Natasha offers short-term, long-term and time-limited programmes, depending on what someone prefers. Work can include skills for managing strong emotions, ways to tackle unhelpful thoughts, or space to process losses and trauma.
She aims to make sessions manageable and relevant to everyday life. She holds a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Roehampton and a Postgraduate Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling from the University of Greenwich. Natasha sees people in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

Approaches that fit online therapy
Client-centred work focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It uses listening and open questions to help people find their own answers and build self-worth. This approach is useful for worries about parenting, low self-esteem, and general life change.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. It offers practical tools and simple exercises to change unhelpful thinking and reduce anxiety or depression. CBT is often used for stress, sleep problems and managing overwhelming emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works and what feels comfortable. This collaborative way helps tailor sessions to parenting concerns or other personal aims.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls suit deeper conversations while phone sessions need less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging can help with brief check-ins, quicker reflection or support between meetings. These options make therapy more flexible around family life, work and study commitments.
