About Sasha
Sasha Dineen is a counsellor who draws on humanistic and person-centred approaches to support people through difficult times. She holds a BA (Hons) degree in Humanistic Counselling and has five years of private-practice experience. Sasha combines practical short-term techniques with an emphasis on listening and understanding the whole person. She is based in Littlehampton, West Sussex, in the United Kingdom.
In her work Sasha mixes person-centred listening with solution-focused ideas. That means sessions often start by spotting what is working, then building on small, practical changes. She also uses creative arts in sessions when that suits a person’s style and needs. This can help people express things they struggle to put into words.
Sasha has worked with adults, children and young people, in person and online, and she also provides services to employee assistance programmes. She runs counselling and wellbeing courses, including sessions on stress and mindfulness, and tutors other counsellors. Her background in teaching informs a clear, steady approach in sessions.
Many people come to Sasha for issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also supports those facing work-related strain, compassion fatigue, addiction and neurodiversity-related matters such as autism and ADHD. She pays attention to practical needs like sleep and eating as well as emotional concerns.
Outside work she enjoys badminton, cold-water sea swimming and board games. Her style is down-to-earth and calm, with a focus on practical steps that fit into everyday life.
How Sasha's approaches translate to online counselling
Person-centred counselling focuses on listening, empathy and understanding. A therapist offers steady, non-judgemental attention and helps the person find their own solutions; this approach is often useful for issues like low self-esteem, grief and relationship concerns.Solution-focused work looks for small, practical steps that can make life easier quickly. Sessions concentrate on strengths and what is already working, which can help with stress, anxiety and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sasha will discuss goals, preferences and everyday pressures and then suggest ways of working that suit the person. That choice is shared and reviewed as progress is made.
Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as taking a session during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. Different online arrangements can suit different needs, for example shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or audio-only conversations when video is not needed.
