About Sasha-Gaye

Sasha-Gaye Bailey is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who helps people dealing with anger, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and trauma. She uses straightforward conversation and practical steps so clients can begin to feel more in control. Sasha-Gaye frames therapy as a collaborative process and treats people as the experts on their own lives.

Her style blends personal and professional insight to create a genuine connection. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, building coping skills, and strengthening self-confidence. Sasha-Gaye encourages small, achievable changes that add up over time.

With about 10 years of experience, she draws on several approaches to match a person's needs. Attachment-based ideas inform how relationships shape behavior.

How Sasha-Gaye Applies Therapy Online

Sasha-Gaye uses attachment-based work to help people understand how early relationships shape current reactions and relational patterns. This approach can be useful when anger or conflict keeps repeating in close relationships and someone wants clearer ways to connect and repair.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and change thoughts and behaviors that fuel distress. CBT offers practical exercises for managing anxiety, anger, and low mood by testing unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sasha-Gaye will talk with each person about goals, history, and preferences and then recommend options. She treats the plan as flexible and adjusts techniques as progress or needs change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session options before booking. The main practical benefits are convenience and easier scheduling around work or family life. Online sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into a lunch break, reduce commuting time, or allow a shorter check-in when energy is low. Therapists can also use exercises, worksheets, and in-session practices that translate well to a virtual setting. Ask about how sessions are scheduled and what to expect in the first meeting to make the best use of time.
