About Sacha
Sacha Akinyemi is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, cope with grief and loss, and work through parenting and relationship concerns. She also supports people with self-esteem, motivation and confidence struggles.
Sacha uses a straightforward, person-focused way of working. Sessions are conversational and aim to identify practical steps you can try between meetings. She pays attention to how family roles, past relationships and everyday routines affect current problems. That can help when navigating blended family issues and co-parenting tensions.
Her approach draws on client-centred listening, short-term solution-focused tasks and systemic ideas about relationships and patterns. This mix is used to clarify what matters now, spot small changes and adjust how people interact. It is aimed at reducing immediate stress and making daily life easier to manage.
Sacha’s background includes supporting people through trauma, eating and body-image concerns, and career or life transitions. She also works with topics such as attachment, adoption and foster care, and infidelity, when these affect an individual’s wellbeing. Her sessions typically focus on practical problem-solving rather than diagnosis.
To begin, she asks about current difficulties and what a better week would look like. From there she and the client agree on short goals and steps to try. This helps keep sessions focused and relevant to the pressures of everyday family life.
How her approaches guide online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s perspective. It helps when someone needs space to talk about feelings and to make sense of family roles and loyalties.Solution-Focused Therapy uses short, practical tasks and clear goals. It is useful for working on specific issues such as managing day-to-day stress, improving communication or trying new parenting routines in a blended household.
Systemic Therapy pays attention to patterns between people and how relationships shape problems. This perspective can help spot recurring conflicts and consider how small changes in interaction might alter family dynamics.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try. That decision is made together and can be adjusted as sessions progress.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week. They reduce travel time and can allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break or evening. If you need clarification about which session formats are offered, confirm the current options before booking to ensure they fit with daily routines.
