Natasha Hughes , BACP

Natasha Hughes is a UK-based counsellor practicing in the Liverpool region who brings 15 years of clinical experience to her work. She is a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) and holds membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - the professional body for counselling and psychotherapy in the UK. Natasha offers a warm, attentive and non-judgmental therapeutic presence and tailors her approach to each person she sees.

Naturally curious about how past experience shapes present responses, she helps adults and young people navigate depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive struggles, post-traumatic stress, substance misuse, mood disturbances, hoarding and dissociation related to traumatic events. She also supports clients facing relationship difficulties, loss and bereavement, and the many life transitions that can feel overwhelming. Her practice is inclusive of diverse backgrounds, sexual orientations, genders, religions and cultures.

Natasha draws on a range of methods to match the needs of the individual, combining client-centered listening with cognitive work that explores how thoughts influence feelings and behaviour. She also has experience in trauma-focused work using EMDR, alongside mindfulness and psychodynamic-informed perspectives that attend to attachment and unconscious patterns. Natasha is accepting new clients and works collaboratively to identify goals and practical steps toward greater relief and fuller engagement in life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Support Online

Natasha often uses client-centered therapy, offering empathic, non-judgmental listening that helps people feel understood and find their own path forward - an approach suited to relationship concerns, grief, self-esteem and life transitions. She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based method that explores how thoughts influence feelings and behaviour and is commonly used for anxiety, depression and stress-related issues. For clients who have experienced trauma, Natasha incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a trauma-focused technique that can help process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Natasha works collaboratively with each person to identify the methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts interventions over time so therapy remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Natasha is designed to be flexible and accessible. Sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose formats that suit their schedule and comfort. This flexibility makes it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy periods, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists who can guide progress and offer ongoing support.
