About Alexandra
Alexandra (Sasha) King works on relationship problems, addiction, grief, anxiety, depression and self-esteem using conversational, person-centred methods. She is a BACP member and has 11 years of practice in the UK.
Sasha begins by listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on real-life difficulties such as coping with loss, managing stress, navigating relationship problems, or struggling with substance use. She uses clear, practical conversations rather than medical jargon.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside client-centred and attachment-based ideas. That means she might help someone notice unhelpful thoughts, try new ways of responding to difficult feelings, and explore how past relationships affect current ones. Existential ideas are used to look at meaning and life choices when that is helpful.
Sasha has worked across a range of emotional and behavioural concerns including eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, trauma and abuse, and issues linked to parenting and blended families. She also supports people dealing with career stress, anger, intimacy difficulties and codependency.
Sessions are carried out in English and Czech. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session through the service's booking flow.
How Sasha uses therapy approaches in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thinking and move towards actions that matter to them. In practice this can mean noticing avoidance or worry and choosing small steps aligned with personal values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking and behaviour patterns that keep problems going and testing new ways of coping. That often suits problems such as anxiety, low mood, sleeping and eating difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, which can help with intimacy, separation and caregiver stress.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Sasha will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then suggest methods to try. She treats this as a collaboration so plans can be adjusted as the work progresses.
The practical format of sessions is not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit around work, childcare or travel, and they can make shorter check-ins or longer therapy blocks possible without extra commuting. Talk to Sasha via the service's booking flow to confirm which session types are available and to arrange times that suit everyday life.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
