About Sasha

Sasha Dineen is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She lists stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and self-esteem among the concerns she addresses, along with other life challenges such as addiction and changes in work or family life.

Sasha trained with a BA (Hons) degree in Humanistic Counselling and also holds a Postgraduate Certificate in Education, PGCE. She blends person-centred, humanistic ideas with short-term, solution-focused work used for workplace Employee Assistance Programmes. Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward, with time to talk about what matters most right now.

She runs a private practice and also provides counselling through several EAPs, so she is used to brief, goal-oriented work as well as longer conversations. Sasha also teaches counselling, mental health and mindfulness courses, which keeps her practice grounded in current approaches and classroom experience.

The profile notes experience working with adults and young people, and an interest in creative arts as part of therapy. Creative options are offered alongside talking therapy when they suit the person and the issue being addressed.

Outside work Sasha swims in the sea, plays badminton and enjoys board games and jigsaw puzzles. These interests often come up in conversation and can be useful ways to talk about coping, routine and everyday wellbeing.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Her background is in humanistic, person-centred counselling which focuses on listening, understanding and working at the client’s pace. This approach helps people talk through feelings such as anxiety or grief and makes space for honest reflection.

She also uses short-term, solution-focused techniques commonly used in Employee Assistance Programmes. These methods concentrate on specific goals, practical steps and small changes that can be tried between sessions, which can be useful for stress, coping with life changes and work-related pressures.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sasha will explore what feels most useful and adapt techniques based on the client’s goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as needs shift.

The original biography mentions she works both in person and online, but it does not list exact session formats here, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins during stressful periods. Some people prefer shorter, focused sessions while others choose standard-length appointments, and the therapist can discuss what suits daily life and practical constraints.
