About Sacha

Sacha Akinyemi is a counsellor who helps people cope with stress, anxiety, grief and parenting challenges. She also supports those dealing with relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, motivation and coping with life changes. She approaches each person with sensitivity and respect.

Sacha works in a conversational, person-centred way. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual. She listens closely and tailors discussions to the concerns someone brings.

That might mean focusing on practical steps, or spending time understanding patterns in relationships and family life.

Background and approach

Her background includes eight years of experience in the United Kingdom and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She draws on a mix of client-centred, solution-focused and systemic ideas to guide the work. These approaches shape the kinds of conversations and tasks Sacha offers rather than promising specific results.

People meet Sacha to talk through grief, trauma and abuse, eating and body-image concerns, or issues around intimacy and communication. She also supports those juggling career stress, parenting pressures and feelings of guilt or shame. Sessions aim to help people identify next steps and gentle ways to practise change between meetings.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She invites clients to set goals and reviews progress together. If someone prefers a more structured plan, she can focus on practical strategies; if they prefer exploration, she will make space for that.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, helping them name feelings and decide what matters most, which is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem and grief.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps and past successes. It helps people set clear goals and try short exercises that can bring early changes in stress, motivation and coping with life changes.

Systemic Therapy pays attention to relationships and family patterns. It examines how interactions and roles influence problems like communication issues, blended family challenges and parenting strains.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options openly and decide together which methods fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. That collaboration continues as sessions progress and plans are adjusted.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping the therapeutic focus.
