About Sasha
Sasha Powell-Mason offers person-centred, integrative counselling that aims to be flexible and responsive to each individual. She focuses on creating a calm, non-judgemental atmosphere so people can talk about what matters in their life. Sasha makes space for clients to move at their own pace while she listens and reflects what she hears.
Sasha holds a first class BSc in Counselling and Psychotherapy and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Background and approach
She draws on a mix of evidence-based techniques to shape sessions around practical needs and goals. That might mean working on coping strategies for anxiety or mapping out ways to manage stress day to day. Her experience includes supporting people with mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar, panic and social anxiety, and issues around self-esteem and body image.
Sasha also helps with bereavement, trauma and abuse, and problems that affect relationships and family life. She is comfortable talking about sexuality, LGBT concerns, and identity questions. Sessions can cover immediate worries like panic attacks or trouble sleeping, and longer-term concerns such as recovery from addiction or managing compassion fatigue.
Sasha adapts the pace and focus of therapy to what each person brings in the moment. She invites questions and aims to make the first steps less daunting. To begin, Sasha asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a time that suits them.
She offers several online formats to make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
How Sasha adapts therapeutic approaches for online care
Sasha combines person-centred work with evidence-based techniques to make online sessions practical and goal-focused. Person-centred counselling emphasises listening, empathy and working at the client’s pace; it helps people feel heard and able to explore difficult feelings. Cognitive and behavioural techniques focus on changing unhelpful thinking patterns and building coping skills, which can be useful for anxiety, panic attacks and mood difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sasha will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that suit the person. This collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted over time if something does not feel like the right fit.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging let people reflect in writing and fit sessions around work or childcare. These options make it easier to keep continuity and find times that suit a busy life.
