About me
Are you struggling with anxiety, grief, self worth, family or relationship difficulties or a life change that has left you feeling overwhelmed ?
Perhaps you're navigating a transition such as becoming a parent, divorce, redundancy or caring for someone else. Or maybe can't quite put your finger on what feels wrong - you just know it things feel heavy at the moment.
There is no invisible criteria you need to meet before coming to counselling.
I am here to help you share the weight - exploring where it came from, how it is affecting you now, and whether all of it is yours to carry.
I offer a calm, non- judgmental space where you can begin to make sense of your experiences, and explore relationships and patterns that may no longer be serving you.

What counselling with me is like
Hi, I'm Natasha. Thank you for visiting my profile.
I'm a qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of the BACP, offering online and face-to-face counselling from my office just outside Warrington (WA12).
As an integrative counsellor, I draw from different therapeutic approaches and adapt our work to you, rather than expecting you to fit into one particular way of working. Our sessions will be shaped around you, your experiences and what you need from therapy.
You don't need to know exactly what to say.
We can start wherever you are.
Person-centred
I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can be yourself. My aim is for you to feel heard, respected and accepted as you are.
Collaborative
Counselling is something we do together. We'll explore your experiences and what you'd like from counselling, with your voice and choices guiding the process.
Connection
The relationship we build together is an important part of counselling. As trust develops, there can be space to reconnect with yourself, your experiences and your understanding of who you are.
If you've been thinking about counselling, I offer a free 15-minute consultation where we can briefly talk about what's bringing you to counselling, what you're hoping for and whether I might be the right counsellor for you.
Some time that first step is simply about allowing yourself to be heard.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
