Natasha McLain, LMFTA. Natasha is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate in cc the state of CT. She earned her Bachelor’s degrees in communication and psychology and her Master’s of marriage and family therapy at Southern Connecticut State University. Natasha uses a developmental, person-centered, solution informed approach to therapy. She believes that the client is an expert in their own experience. She aims to help clients determine their personal needs, goals and ways of achieving them. In helping you identify what matters to you (and what doesn’t), she collaborates with clients to identify, explore, intervene, and repair any parts where they feel healing is required. 

Navigating life experiences from birth to present can be challenging but can also be deeply rewarding. Depending on your desired goals, Natasha uses a variety of developmentally based systems’ therapies to examine learned behaviors and communication styles so you can choose more of what works for you and less of what does not.  Natasha draws from emotionally focused family therapy, attachment theory, and interpersonal neurobiology to promote healthy rewarding relationships, restore and improve meaningful connection, and access resilience in your life. Identifying parts of development where needs were poorly met, using reparative therapies, Natasha will help reshape, heal, and repair the past to reveal and explore your unique personhood, your purpose, and meaning.

Natasha chose the field of marriage and family therapy for its focus on system theory, examining how a system impacts an individual as well as how the individual affects the system.  Her experience includes assisting couples to navigate life’s changes such as the birth of a new child, developing age-appropriate parenting styles, repairing breakdowns in communication and intimacy incongruencies. Natasha has experience in co-parenting mediation and counseling, premarital counseling and facilitating parent education programs.

Natasha’s therapeutic goal is to help you answer your own “miracle question”, if you woke tomorrow and your life felt right and your own, what would be new and different? In therapy she works with clients to not only understand that question but to develop strategies for making their vision a reality. Sometimes people feel stuck. Feeling as though life is happening without their consent. It is Natasha’s belief that everyone possesses the resources to unstick themselves and uncover those abilities. Solution focused and strategic family therapies provide a blueprint for regaining control of one’s life. Whether the identified goals are long or short term, focusing on the potential solutions, and the client’s self-efficacy can help in the achievement of them. When so many variables in life are beyond our control, regaining confidence in our own abilities and strengths can help create a desired future.

When not with clients, Natasha can be found digging for worms with her two boys, ages three and eight. She loves planting, propagating, and tending to her many, many plants and creating new sourdough recipes. She has a deep passion for exploring new places and cultures, including cuisine. When not in the garden or kitchen, Natasha can be found thrifting at Goodwill with a true crime podcast in her earbuds.
