About Natasha
Natasha Walker is a counsellor who works in a person-centred way. She makes empathy and unconditional positive regard the heart of sessions. Her style is gentle and patient, and she encourages people to set their own goals before moving forward.
She blends person-centred practice with narrative ideas and other approaches. That means she helps people tell and reframe the stories they carry about themselves. She also draws on techniques from cognitive behavioural and acceptance-focused work when these suit a person’s needs.
Background and approach
Natasha has six years of experience. She has worked in centres, in schools, and online or by phone. That range has shaped the way she adapts sessions for adults, young adults, teens and children while also running a independent practice.
She helps with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. Other focus areas include relationship concerns, parenting strain, grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, bipolar and issues connected with identity and intimacy. Natasha is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She keeps up with ongoing professional development and tailors session plans to the person in front of her. Her approach aims to be respectful, non-stigmatising and practical. If someone is ready to start, she invites them to take the first step and work collaboratively to set realistic goals and steadily build change.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Natasha directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How Natasha uses different approaches online
Natasha blends narrative and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people reframe their stories and live in line with their values. Narrative work focuses on the stories people tell about themselves, helping separate a person from the problem so they can author new meanings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) uses simple exercises to clarify values and teach ways to keep acting toward those values despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Attachment-informed work can help when people notice repeated relationship difficulties or have trouble trusting closeness. Natasha treats choosing an approach as a shared task - she will listen to your goals, try different ways of working, and agree together what feels most useful as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit into a busy day, and messaging works for short check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options help people access support from wherever they are and make it easier to find a rhythm that suits work, family and life commitments.
