As Clinical Director of Natacha Pennycooke Psychotherapy Professional Corporation, a leading virtual therapy practice, Natacha brings over 14 years of experience across diverse settings, including community organizations, hospitals, forensic environments, and corporate spaces.

Natacha is deeply committed to decolonizing psychology and a fierce advocate for social and racial justice. She integrates anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, and anti-Black racism frameworks into her therapeutic work, championing mental health equity and reshaping the narrative around therapy for marginalized communities.

Natacha is a dynamic speaker and sought-after workshop facilitator who delivers compelling insights on workplace mental health, anxiety, racial trauma, women’s empowerment, and emotional regulation. Whether on international stages or virtual platforms, her expertise and passionate delivery continue to inspire and empower individuals and organizations alike.
