About Alexandra

Alexandra (Sasha) King is a counsellor and psychotherapist who uses a person-focused style to help people tackle difficult emotions and life changes. She holds BACP accreditation, and brings 11 years of professional experience to sessions. Sasha aims to make it easier to talk about painful topics and to find practical ways forward.

She works with people facing anger and stress, anxiety and depression, and problems with sleep or eating. She also helps those coping with grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and addiction concerns. Parents and people managing major life changes can explore confidence, career worries and questions about meaning in life.

Sasha creates an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared. In sessions she focuses on what matters to each person and helps them set small, achievable steps. Work is collaborative and paced to the client’s needs.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot unhelpful patterns and practise new ways of responding. Attachment-based and client-centred ideas shape how she builds trust and explores relationship patterns.

Sessions are offered in English and Czech to people in the United Kingdom. Practical issues such as coping strategies, motivation for change, and managing cravings or strong emotions are worked on alongside exploring meaning and values.

How Sasha’s approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing hard thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values. This can help when anger, anxiety or depression keep people from living the life they want. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for stress, sleep or eating problems. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early and current relationship patterns affect emotions and closeness, helping people understand triggers and improve communication.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted as progress is made.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as options are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days and to keep contact between meetings. It can allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, reduce travel, and offer flexibility for those juggling work or family commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can help plan how therapy will fit into everyday life.
