Alexandra (Sasha) King uses a mix of practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction and relationship problems. She is a BACP counsellor with 11 years of professional experience. Sasha speaks English and Czech and works with clients from the United Kingdom.

Sasha keeps sessions straightforward and down to earth. She listens without judgement and invites honest conversation about what feels hard. Sessions focus on small, useful steps you can try between meetings so change feels doable.

Background and approach

Her work often combines acceptance and commitment techniques with cognitive behavioural ideas. She also draws on attachment-based and client-centred ways of working to understand patterns in relationships. This mix helps when someone is dealing with grief, low self-esteem, trauma, or difficulties with intimacy and communication.

Sasha has helped people facing addiction, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strains, and challenges at work. She also supports those coping with life changes, anger, ADHD-related concerns, and feelings of emptiness. Her approach is adaptable to each person’s situation and goals.

Practical details are explained at the start of therapy so people know what to expect. Sessions can be by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and to choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, addiction and dealing with difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical steps to change patterns that cause distress. It often helps with anxiety, low mood and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current connections and can help with intimacy issues, trust and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sasha will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then agree on which methods to try. She adapts techniques collaboratively so the plan fits what the person wants to achieve rather than forcing a single style.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from different locations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can suit quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for people who prefer writing or need brief, ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and daily routines while still following a clear therapeutic plan.
