About Atasha
Atasha Codginton is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with three years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, parenting concerns, and self-esteem challenges. Atasha also works with issues that arise from abandonment, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and multicultural concerns.
She approaches sessions from a client-centered perspective, which means she treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and on emotionally-focused strategies to look at how feelings shape relationships. Solution-focused work helps keep sessions practical and goal-oriented.
In practice, sessions are straightforward and conversational. Clients can expect to talk through current problems, look at what has worked before, and try small, concrete steps to test change between meetings. Atasha pays attention to how family roles and early family of origin issues affect present relationships.
She has particular experience supporting parents, including those caring for children with special needs, to reduce overwhelm and find clearer routines. She also assists people dealing with betrayal, jealousy, guilt, and questions about life purpose. Her approach mixes short-term strategies with closer attention to emotional patterns.
Sessions are offered in English. People who are interested in starting are asked to use the site flow to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Atasha blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and emotionally-focused ideas. Client-centered work means the session follows the person's priorities and builds on their strengths. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors to find small experiments that reduce anxiety or unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-focused ideas help identify and name feelings that affect relationships and guide moments where repair or new strategies can begin.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. She will talk with the person about goals, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust the focus as needs change. The aim is to combine emotional understanding with practical steps the person can use between sessions.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten commuting time, or allow a quieter check-in during a break. Online work also supports steadily testing small behavior changes at home and then discussing what happened in the next meeting.
