Dr. Natasha Cook is amazing. She made me feel very comfortable and at ease right out of the gate. She had prepared for our initial conversation based off my questionnaire, which helped her to understand and address my concerns, offering tools at the first meeting to help me. The entire process with the app was extremely easy and I love that I have the ability to go on line and see what is available for scheduling. Dr. Cook also has a wide range of hours, including weekends, so it very easy to get in quickly! There is a lot of flexibility with video, just phone, etc. I highly recommend!!

More about Natasha

  • 17 years' experience
  • Female
  • Psychologist

There have been years of growing stressors and challenges for nearly everyone. My clients typically have described difficulties managing their stress and consistently utilizing stress reduction strategies. They have also shared struggles with managing anxiety, attention, relationships, and depression.

Often, my clients want to gain better awareness of their specific challenges; create healthy strategies to manage those difficulties; and establish ways to maintain those changes. My goal is to help others to identify and become the best version of themselves by using a variety of psychological techniques grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Theory (CBT).

You want to feel mentally healthy? To show up "better" for yourself and others? To have better awareness and control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions? I invite you to take the next step towards these goals of improved mental health...contact me a call so we can talk about you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
