About Natasha

Natasha Deshommes is an LPC, Licensed Professional Counselor, and an LMHC, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, practicing with eight years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as family conflict, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, grief, and caregiving stress. Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole and she is based in Rhode Island.

Natasha uses straightforward conversation to help people spot patterns that keep recurring from their family of origin and everyday life. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters to the person sitting in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify thoughts and behaviors that feed low mood and anxiety. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when people feel overwhelmed.

Her work often focuses on practical steps - simple strategies to reduce stress, improve communication, and set boundaries. Natasha talks through coping skills, supports planning around caregiving or career changes, and helps people name and test small changes that matter. She can also work on issues related to adoption, blended families, and family of origin concerns.

Sessions balance listening with concrete tools. Natasha practices in a direct, respectful way and encourages clear goals and measurable steps. People can expect a collaborative process that mixes conversation with skill practice and problem solving.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Payment uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach emphasize open conversation and helping the client clarify their goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going; online CBT often includes homework, short skill practice, and tracking patterns between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills; in online sessions these skills can be taught, practiced, and reviewed together for things like stress, anxiety, or intense emotions.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the first conversations. The therapist works collaboratively with the client to pick methods that match the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed rather than committing to one method from the start.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in their everyday environment and bring real-life examples to the session for focused problem solving.
