How Alexandra works
She also supports people facing grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, sleeping and eating problems, and life transitions. Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions aim to build understanding of patterns that cause distress and to try simple changes that fit everyday life.
Sasha mixes acceptance-based strategies with practical cognitive work and a focus on attachment needs. She also works with people affected by trauma and abuse, domestic violence, addiction, and co-morbidity. Additional areas of focus include autism and Asperger syndrome, ADHD, communication and control issues, codependency, and separation or divorce.
Sasha offers a calm, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings are welcomed. She helps people set realistic goals and find ways to cope that suit their situation. The first sessions typically look at priorities and what small steps could feel achievable.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and learn how to act in line with their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress and motivation issues. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in close relationships and how they affect current connection and trust. It can help with intimacy concerns, relationship difficulties and attachment wounds. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on giving the person space to be heard without judgement, supporting self-understanding and personal growth.Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and review progress as therapy continues.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different practical needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and keep continuity when life is busy.
