About Alexandra
Alexandra (Sasha) King is a counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and brings eleven years of practical experience supporting people through anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. Sasha works to create a warm, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about openly.
In sessions she helps people cope with addictions and substance issues, and with the emotional impact of bereavement. She supports those facing low self-esteem, stress, sleep and eating difficulties, and problems around intimacy and sexual health. Sasha also works with people navigating life changes such as separation, parenting challenges and career shifts.
Her approach draws on a mix of therapies including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based methods. She uses these tools to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try new ways of responding, and bring values into daily life.
Sasha gives space to people dealing with more complex presentations too, such as trauma, dissociation, co-morbidity and dependency issues. She has particular experience supporting clients with ADHD, autism and codependency concerns. Practical coping strategies are combined with room to reflect on meaning and relationships.
Sessions are delivered in a collaborative way that respects each person’s pace. Sasha aims to help clients build clearer boundaries, improve communication and regain a sense of control over their choices.
Therapeutic approaches used in online work
The therapist draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and focus instead on valued actions. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression and codependency-related patterns.Attachment-Based Therapy is also part of her practice and looks at how early relationship patterns shape current bonds and expectations. It can help when relationship difficulties, intimacy issues or attachment concerns are affecting day-to-day life.
Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they will try ways of working that feel most helpful. Adjustments can be made as therapy progresses to match what is most effective for the individual.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep continuity of care when circumstances change, while letting the therapist and client focus on practical tools, values-based goals and improved communication.
