About Sasha

Sasha Dineen is a BACP counsellor based in Littlehampton, West Sussex, with five years of practice experience. She trained with a BA (Hons) in Humanistic Counselling and also holds a Postgraduate Certificate in Education. Sasha works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, self-esteem, addiction, ADHD and anger.

She combines humanistic, person-centred principles with short-term, solution-focused work. This means sessions often start with practical goals and use open, person-centred conversation to explore what matters most. Sasha runs a private practice and also provides support through Employee Assistance Programmes.

Sasha has experience working with adults, children and young people in both face-to-face and online settings, and uses creative arts in sessions when helpful. She also teaches counselling, mental health, wellbeing, stress and mindfulness on training courses.

In sessions she may use creative tools alongside talking, depending on what the person prefers. The focus is on clear, manageable steps for coping with life changes, communication problems and strong emotions such as anger. Her background in education informs a practical approach to learning new skills.

Outside work she plays badminton, enjoys sea swimming and likes board games and jigsaw puzzles. Those interests sometimes shape how she introduces creative or activity-based options in therapy.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Sasha draws on humanistic person-centred counselling and short-term solution-focused work. Person-centred counselling focuses on open, reflective conversation and giving the client space to describe their experience. It helps with exploring feelings like anger and building better emotional awareness. Solution-focused work looks at small, practical steps and immediate goals that a person can try between sessions to reduce stress and manage reactions.

She also uses creative arts in sessions when helpful, such as drawing or simple activities that help express difficult feelings. These tools can make it easier to talk about things that feel stuck, and they suit people who prefer doing as well as talking. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative - the therapist and client review what is useful and adjust methods as they go.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting therapy into a busy week and keeping appointments when travel is difficult. Because the biography does not list specific online formats, confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions help them attend more regularly and try techniques in daily life between appointments.
