About Natasha

Natasha Deshommes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with eight years of clinical experience. She practices in Rhode Island and works with adults facing common life struggles such as family problems, grief, low self-esteem, depression, stress, anxiety, and relationship concerns. She also lists guilt and shame among the issues she addresses.

Natasha uses straightforward conversation to help people name what is weighing on them. Sessions focus on practical steps and skills as well as making sense of past events that still hurt. She combines Client-Centered methods with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy depending on what feels useful.

Her background includes work with adoption and foster care situations, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and first responder concerns. She also supports people coping with body image, eating-related problems, codependency, and forgiveness questions. That range means she has experience addressing both immediate coping needs and longer-standing family-of-origin patterns.

In session, she draws on Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy to help people clarify goals and reframe painful stories about themselves. Conversations are geared toward identifying small, manageable changes and testing what works in daily life. She describes therapy as collaborative and grounded in respect and sensitivity.

Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole. Cost varies with location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Natasha uses online approaches and therapy methods

Natasha combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in ways that focus on what the client wants to change. Client-Centered work means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's priorities while helping them describe feelings and goals. CBT involves looking at patterns of thoughts and behaviors and trying small experiments to reduce distress and improve mood.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when people need practical tools for regulating intense emotions and managing stress. DBT skills can help with anxiety, strong shame reactions, and situations where quick coping strategies are useful. Together these approaches are offered flexibly so they match the person's needs and preferences, and Natasha will discuss options with each client to find the best fit.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people join from different locations. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, narrative work, and DBT skills training to the online setting to focus on concrete changes and clearer thinking.
