About Sacha
Sacha Akinyemi is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and loss, parenting pressures, and issues with self-esteem and motivation. Sacha also supports clients dealing with relationship strain, anger, eating and intimacy-related concerns. Sessions are presented in plain language and focus on practical steps to cope better day to day.
She works in a conversational, client-centred way that keeps the client's aims at the centre. That means listening to what matters most, and then shaping short-term goals together. Solution-Focused Therapy methods are used to identify small changes that add up. Systemic Therapy ideas help when problems are linked to family roles or repeated patterns.
Sacha explains things simply and breaks larger problems into smaller, manageable parts. She offers straightforward techniques to reduce reactivity, improve communication, and rebuild confidence. Work may include setting clear boundaries, practising calm responses, and rehearsing different ways to speak about difficult feelings.
Practical concerns such as managing parenting stress, navigating separation or divorce, and coping with infertility of relationships are part of her experience. She is also familiar with adoption and foster care matters, attachment questions, and blended family dynamics.
Sacha works in English and accepts international clients. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, so ongoing work can be arranged month to month. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Sacha draws on Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise what the client wants to change. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters, and shaping sessions around the client's immediate concerns. It is helpful for building trust and for addressing issues like low self-esteem and motivation.Solution-Focused Therapy is used to find practical steps and small goals. This method looks for what already works in a person’s life and scales those actions up. It tends to suit people wanting concrete ways to reduce anger flare-ups, handle workplace frustration, or change routine reactions.
Systemic Therapy helps when problems are linked to family roles or repeated patterns between people. It looks at how relationships and expectations shape behaviour and can be useful for parenting tensions, blended family challenges, and communication problems.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped in the past, then agree on an approach together. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs evolve.
