About Atasha
Atasha Codginton is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with three years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, parenting challenges, and self-esteem concerns. Her practice also addresses issues such as guilt and shame, abandonment, blended family tensions, codependency, and multicultural concerns.
Atasha centers sessions on the client's perspective and strengths. She uses clear, practical conversation to help people name what feels stuck and try small changes. Expect straightforward questions, reflective listening, and collaborative goal setting rather than technical jargon.
She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the focus on each person's experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) ideas inform work around close relationships and attachment feelings.
Atasha has supported parents managing caregiving stress, including those raising children with special needs, and has worked with people facing infidelity, jealousy, and obsessive thinking. She also addresses forgiveness and the heavy emotions that come from family of origin wounds.
Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented, with attention to your values and day-to-day life. She asks about history and current stressors, then helps build manageable steps forward. If you want to learn more about formats and scheduling, confirm current session options before booking.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to each person's experience and following their lead. In practice this means the therapist asks about what matters most to you, reflects what she hears, and helps you build on your own strengths to face guilt, shame, or family concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. With CBT she helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns, try small experiments, and develop practical skills to manage anxiety, obsessions, or self-critical thoughts.
She aims to find the right mix of approaches together with the client. That means discussing goals, testing methods, and adjusting the plan based on what feels most useful. The therapist treats the choice of approach as a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy life - for example, they can shorten commute time, allow easier scheduling around work or caregiving, and make brief check-ins possible when a full in-person visit would be harder. Discussing logistics and preferences is part of early sessions so that appointments fit into everyday routines.
