01About Natasha
Natasha Deshommes greets people with a calm, practical approach. She focuses on helping individuals manage stress, grief, relationship strains, and low self-esteem. Natasha speaks English and Haitian Creole and practices as an LPC and LMHC while working from Rhode Island.
She prefers short, clear conversations that focus on immediate concerns and realistic steps. Sessions center on what the person wants to change and what feels achievable right now. Natasha listens first, then helps set small goals to build forward momentum.
Background and approach
Her work draws on client-centered methods that let people lead the conversation. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. For people tangled in strong emotions, she brings in strategies from dialectical behavior therapy to manage intense feelings and steady relationships.
Natasha has eight years of experience in clinical settings and community work. That background includes helping with family issues, trauma and abuse, adoption and foster care topics, caregiver stress, first responder concerns, and end-of-life situations among other areas. She adapts session pace and tools to each person’s situation.
Practical supports are part of the process: simple coping plans, communication steps to test between sessions, and motivation-focused guidance when people feel stuck. To start, a short matching questionnaire connects someone to scheduling options and the session format that fits them best.

How Natasha Uses Practical Therapies Online
Natasha often blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy. Client-centered therapy means she follows what the person brings to the room, offers empathy, and helps people name their priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety or low mood.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy tools when emotions feel overwhelming. Those tools teach short-term techniques for calming, managing intense feelings, and improving communication in stressful moments. Together these approaches help with stress, grief, relationship challenges, and coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. She will talk with the person about goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works. Clients help set the pace and choose which strategies to keep.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a full session when visual cues matter. Phone can be quicker or easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, skill reminders, or follow-up between visits. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy days.
