About Alexandra
Alexandra (Sasha) King is a counsellor and psychotherapist with BACP accreditation and 11 years of experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on helping people who are finding life hard to manage right now. Sasha aims to make the first step into therapy feel achievable and respectful.
She uses straightforward, person-focused conversations to help people talk about what matters. Sessions look at worries such as anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss, and problems with sleep and eating. Sasha also supports people facing addiction, relationship difficulties and challenges around parenting and pregnancy.
Her approach draws on several well-known therapies to suit different needs. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps break cycles of unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to accept painful feelings while moving towards a life they value. Attachment-based ideas are used when relationships and patterns from the past are causing pain.
Sasha keeps the room non-judgemental and practical. She helps people set small, manageable goals and tries out changes between sessions. Conversations cover everyday coping skills as well as deeper questions about meaning, identity and self-esteem.
She offers sessions in English and Czech and works with people across a wide range of concerns, including autism-related issues, trauma, domestic violence and co-morbidity. To begin, Sasha asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to her availability.
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) uses simple exercises to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, stress, sleep troubles and problems that come from avoidance. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to reduce unhelpful patterns; it is useful for low mood, worry and sleep disruption. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns from the past and how they affect current connections and emotional safety, which can be helpful for intimacy, parenting worries and repeated relationship issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try out methods together and adapt the plan if something is not helpful. That collaborative process helps people find what suits their needs and situation rather than imposing a single method.
Confirm the session formats with the therapist before booking, as options are not specified here. Online appointments can be easier to fit around work, childcare and daily life, and they often make regular check-ins simpler. They can also allow shorter phone check-ins or video meetings depending on what feels most practical for each person.
