About Atasha
Atasha Codginton is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who focuses on helping parents navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and family challenges. She centers work on each person's strengths and experiences. She aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and supported.
With three years of clinical experience, she has worked with parents facing a range of concerns including caregiving stress and blended family issues.
Background and approach
She also addresses topics such as codependency, family of origin wounds, and feelings of guilt or shame. Practical problem-solving is mixed with attention to emotions that come up in family life. Her approach values what each person already knows about their life.
Sessions emphasize listening, reflection, and building on existing resources. Simple tools and small experiments are used between meetings to test what helps most in daily routines. Atasha draws on methods from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused work, and brief solution-focused strategies.
She adapts these ideas to the specific parenting and family concerns a person brings. The goal is clearer thinking, better communication, and more manageable stress. Sessions are offered in English and are provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short questionnaire helps match clients and then sessions are scheduled according to the therapist's availability.

Approaches that guide online parenting support
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Sessions center the parent's experience and strengths, helping them find their own solutions and build confidence in parenting choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. It uses practical exercises to reduce anxious thinking and change unhelpful patterns that get in the way of family life.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name underlying emotions and needs that drive relationship reactions. This approach is useful when communication and emotional connection are goals for a parent dealing with partnership or family tension.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try ideas in session, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative process helps match techniques to each person's priorities.
Online formats allow flexibility for busy families. Video calls let people see each other's expressions for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer quick access between sessions and can fit into a work break or late evening. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around parenting and caregiving demands.
