About Sacha
Sacha Akinyemi helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns and low self-esteem. She supports people facing relationship difficulties, career worries, eating and body image issues, and those coping with major life changes. Sacha also works with people experiencing trauma, compassion fatigue and intimacy-related problems.
Sacha uses a straightforward and respectful style in sessions. She listens carefully and adapts conversations to each person. The aim is to work together on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than lecture or diagnose.
Background and approach
Her background includes eight years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience has included a range of presenting issues from bereavement and parenting strains to attachment and family of origin concerns. Sacha draws on client-centred methods to keep sessions focused on the person's own priorities.
She also uses solution-focused ideas to spot small changes that make a real difference. Systemic approaches are used when it helps to look at patterns in relationships and family life. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged for people inside or outside the United Kingdom.
Sacha works by adapting her approach to each person’s goals, and she supports practical problem solving alongside emotional processing.

Approaches Sacha lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sacha will work collaboratively to decide which methods match a person's needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change over time, and she adjusts the plan as progress or new priorities emerge.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when tone and expressions matter. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a good option for shorter check-ins. Live chat or text-based messaging suits people who prefer typed conversation or want quick, frequent check-ins. These options provide flexibility in how and when people engage with therapy.
