I have been fortunate to work with people in all stages across the life-span, as a counselor and life coach for 20 years. I have a B.A. in Early Childhood Education from Western Michigan University and have taught at the preschool and early elementary level. I also have training as a birth and postpartum doula. My M.A., also through WMU, is in Community Agency Counseling with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan and Arizona. I was fortunate to offer counseling for elderly residents of long-term care facilities in Branch County, MI for five years. My pronouns are she/her.
Most recently I have combined my passion for helping people with my interest in multiculturalism. I am a certified diversity trainer with National Coalition Building Institute and have spent twelve years working with international high school exchange students throughout every aspect of their program experience, from placement to support throughout their program year.
I was very happy to complete training through Bennett Stellar University in Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Hypnotherapy in 2013 and have found the coaching skills gained there to be a tremendous addition to my counseling background. My approach to counseling varies depending on the needs of the client and combines all aspects of my own background and training to work effectively with a diverse range of clients at all points in the life cycle.
My counseling style is warm, compassionate, and interactive. I use an eclectic blend of cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and mindfulness techniques along with Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and hypnotherapy to help you reach your goals. Together we will explore the messages you have absorbed from the world around you and re-frame the subconscious messages you give yourself so that you can find peace, happiness, and success.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Natasha Wagner. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
She is the best therapist, I could have gotten. I've grown so much in the years of therapy with her. She is respectful, listens and gives great advice and exercises, that help me in my path to getting better in standing up for myself and getting over traumas. She has been a massive help in healing during my burnout and after 2 years, I'm almost out of my burnout. She is not only here for my burnout, but any topic in my live is on the table. I can talk to her and feel at ease with her, it feels as if I'm talking to a great friend, who has the experience in advice and guidance that I need. She is very good at her job, give her a raise, she deserves it.
And I'm a big fan of Betterhelp. I love that I can message my therapist at any given time (which in a moment of crisis, gives an instant release, I can vent, and that helps in not overboiling in my real life situation) and I love that I can do my therapy session from the comfort of my own house. This is amazing, definitely after a session where I've cried, or felt down, then I can just go to sleep and there is no need to feel weird because I still have to drive home or take the public transport. I don't loose time being on the road. And the fact that there is a timedifference is amazing, for me my session is in the evening, while for her, it is during the day, so no need to take time off from work. Amazing

NATASHA IS AMAZING
Written on Nov 06, 2024 after therapy with Natasha for 3 years and 6 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, and self esteem
Natasha is a great, caring therapist who fully utilizes the Betterhelp platform to give me an all-encompassing experience where I'm able to talk to her about anything I'm feeling down about, from existential fears to personal drama, whenever I need to. She uses a variety of therapeutic techniques and modalities with finesse and I always feel better after counseling with her. I also believe she is a big part of why my life is in its upward trajectory, as I had numerous therapists before her (not associated with Betterhelp) that were much less helpful.

I know that reviews can be cheesy, but Natasha Wagner is the best. I have worked with two therapists in the past and they cannot compare to how much she has helped me. I have only been working with her for just about a month at this point, and I cry every session, but she makes me feel so comfortable to be vulnerable. She has learned things about me that I haven't told anyone before and she has helped me process them. If you are looking for a genuinely good provider, she is the one I would recommend. I absolutely love working with her and I am already seeing progress. She is amazing.

I haven’t been talking with Natasha for very long but so far she has helped resolve a few of my concerns and validated how I’ve been feeling. She’s very easy to talk to and at this point I feel like I’ve clicked better with her than any other Counsellor I’ve sought in my life. I hope to stick with her long-term!

Natasha has been a great support in my journey of understanding myself, controlling my emotions and managing my anger. At the end of my therapy I am more confident and a more matured and clear communicator in terms of managing my relationships. Natasha made everything so simple and easy. I could connect with her from my first session, felt like I was talking to a old friend. What is commendable of her is her solutions are so simple in form of exercise, story or book you need to read. She definitely made this journey very easy and comfortable. Thank you for being there for me Natasha!!

Natasha has provided me with a safe and open space to process and heal. She’s there in any capacity you need her to be. If you want to vent, have a conversation, ask for guidance… Natasha is there for anything. She is a big reason why my healing process has sped up and not continued to weigh heavily on me. I feel so much lighter through all the months of talking with her. Can’t recommend her enough!

Natasha is fantastic! She's kind, caring, funny and genuine. She shares personal stories to relate to situations you may find yourself in, and is a great voice of reason. She helps you work through issues and guides you to find answers, then works with you to create goals and solutions. She has helped me tremendously and I looked forward to my calls with her every week. 10/10 would recommend, will absolutely use her again if/when I return to counselling.

Natasha has truly been one of the most empathetic people I have had the opportunity to work with. From the very first session I felt like it was a safe space, free of judgement, and open to moving at my pace. It’s only been a few sessions, but she has given me tools to use that have already begun to help shape my thought process in a positive way. I highly recommend working with her when you feel ready to start your own journey for healing- she is a wonderful and compassionate guide.

I have tried several counselors in my life-some traditional and some e-counselor -and Natasha is awesome! I love her energy and life-coach approach! She is experienced and really makes me feel at ease. I got more benefits from 2 weeks with her than 2 years with another counselor. I highly recommend her.
