About me

Hello, I am Natasha, though most people call me Tasha. Before training as a counsellor, I spent 24 years as a teacher, supporting children and young people aged 5 to 18 through academic pressure, emotional challenges, and major life changes.

I now work in schools and have a private practice with children and adults in short and long-term therapy. I believe in the quiet power of being truly listened to.

Professional background Diplomas in Therapeutic Counselling (CPCAB), currently completing a Level 5 diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling. Registered member of the BACP.

How I work
