About Alexandra
Alexandra (Sasha) King uses a human-centred approach to help people tackle stressful life moments. She is a BACP counsellor with eleven years of practice in the United Kingdom. Sasha focuses on practical ways to reduce anxiety, address low self-esteem, and manage stress so people can feel steadier day to day.
She works with people who are dealing with addiction, grief and loss, depression, and relationship difficulties. Parenting concerns and intimacy-related issues are also within her areas of attention, along with sleep and eating struggles.
Background and approach
Her practice includes support for LGBT clients and those navigating career changes or major life transitions. Sasha draws on a mix of methods to match a person’s needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and act with intention.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to spot and change patterns that keep problems going. Attachment-based ideas inform work on relating and closeness. Sessions are conversational and focused on what the person wants to change.
Sasha aims to make space for honest talk and practical steps between sessions. She also tailors work for cases involving ADHD, autism, blended family questions, caregiver stress, and recovery from domestic violence or substance problems. Most work is done online by video, phone, chat or messaging.
Sasha offers sessions in English and Czech, and works with people in the United Kingdom. To begin, a short questionnaire helps match goals and plan the next steps.

How Sasha’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people figure out what matters most to them and take small, workable steps towards those values while learning to sit with difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and testing new ways of acting that reduce anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relating styles affect current relationships and aims to build safer ways of connecting and communicating.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Sasha will work collaboratively to match methods to a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That might mean combining ACT with CBT, or using attachment ideas alongside client-centred talking so the work feels relevant and practical.
Online sessions make this flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face work and visual cues, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or a simpler check-in is needed, and live chat or messaging can suit shorter updates or people who prefer writing. These options help fit therapy into busy lives and different routines while keeping focus on progress and outcomes.
