Nathasha Sharma BA, MSc, CCTP
Trauma Informed Psychotherapist & Mental Health Counselor | CBT & Integrative Therapy
Welcome, my name is Nathasha.
I grew up between cultures. I am South Asian, originally from India, and spent most of my life in the Middle East before moving to Greece. Living across different places shaped my understanding of identity, belonging, and the quiet question many of us carry: Where do I fit?
For a long time, home felt undefined, something felt rather than named. With time and reflection, I came to understand that home is not a place, but an inner landscape shaped by our experiences, values, relationships, and emotions. This understanding lies at the heart of my work as a therapist.
I believe every person is complex, layered, and deeply human, shaped by culture, transitions, and the stories they carry. In my work, I aim to offer a space of warmth, curiosity, and compassion, where all parts of you are welcome and your experiences are met with care. It is this respect for the full human experience that drew me to the field of psychology and mental health.
Although I was drawn to psychology from a young age, I initially planned to pursue theatrical arts in high school. Over time, I learned that my interest was not in theater itself, but in the people and stories behind it, their emotions, thoughts, and inner worlds. This deep compassion for the human experience ultimately led me to pursue psychology, earning a B.A. in Psychology from Deree – The American College of Greece/The Open University and an MSc in Clinical Psychology from Hellenic American University.
During my training, I gained extensive clinical experience, working with individuals and groups. I have been trained and supervised in private clinical settings, supporting clients with experiences related to trauma and abuse, attachment difficulties, anxiety, stress, panic attacks, and a wide range of other experiences. I have also participated in workshops, webinars, and group trainings on topics such as ADHD, OCD, self-esteem, procrastination, mindfulness, somatic techniques, and trauma-informed approaches.
I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Attachment-Based Therapy, and I work integratively, incorporating approaches such as Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, Schema Therapy, Gestalt, Psychodynamic, Person-Centered, and holistic methods. My personal struggles with adverse experiences and professional exploration deepened my interest in trauma work, leading me to obtain certification as a Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and training in Trauma-Informed Stabilization Therapy (TIST Levels 1 and 2).
I offer counseling and psychotherapy sessions both in person and online, as well as workshops, webinars, and group sessions. My work is grounded in culturally sensitive and trauma-informed care, with a strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for growth and healing. I consider it a privilege to walk alongside each individual with empathy, honesty, respect, and authenticity, and I warmly welcome you to begin this journey at your own pace.
