About Atasha

Atasha Codginton is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who centers her work on practical, evidence-informed strategies while honoring each person's strengths.

Background and approach

With three years of professional experience, she blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and emotionally focused methods to address stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, family conflicts, parenting challenges, and self-esteem concerns. Her approach emphasizes collaboration and the client's own expertise about their life.

She also brings attention to complex patterns that often underlie presenting problems, including abandonment, blended family dynamics, caregiver strain, codependency, family of origin wounds, and issues such as infidelity, jealousy, guilt, and shame. Atasha weaves solution-focused elements into sessions to help clients set concrete goals and identify small, manageable steps toward change.

Fluent in English, she offers a warm, empowering style intended to support people through transitions and difficult emotions while building practical coping skills.

Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches into Online Care

Atasha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical coping strategies for anxiety, stress, and mood difficulties. CBT focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors through structured exercises and skills practice and is often paired with goal-oriented work to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes a nonjudgmental, empathic stance and supports clients in exploring their values and strengths. That approach can be helpful for building self-esteem, working through family of origin concerns, and creating a trusting therapeutic relationship that supports deeper change.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to clarify goals, try techniques that suit their preferences, and adjust methods as needed so treatment fits the individual's needs and circumstances.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access therapy from locations within the therapist's service area.
