About Natasha
Natasha Maritim is a licensed clinical social worker who centers her practice on practical, evidence-informed strategies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and related concerns.
Background and approach
With three years of professional experience in the District of Columbia, she emphasizes collaboration and helps clients identify strengths they can use to manage difficult emotions and patterns. Natasha approaches therapy as a partnership, encouraging clients to see themselves as the experts on their own lives while offering guidance, tools, and structure to support change.
She also works with issues tied to self-esteem, addictions, intimacy, career challenges, and compassion fatigue, alongside focused areas like body image, immigration-related stress, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, self-love, and workplace difficulties. Her style blends practical skill-building with validation and empowerment, helping people take the initial steps toward a more fulfilling life.
Natasha supports clients as they explore goals, practice new coping strategies, and apply changes outside of sessions to create sustainable progress.
CBT-informed care delivered through online sessions
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, goal-focused approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often involves learning specific skills, practicing new ways of responding to stress, and applying those skills between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage depression, and improve focus for those with attention challenges.
Navigating which approach will fit best is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each client to clarify goals, test strategies, and adjust techniques based on what feels most effective and acceptable for the individual's needs and preferences.
Online therapy with this clinician is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care while balancing work, family, or other commitments, and they allow clients to engage in therapy in ways that feel most comfortable for them.
