About Sasha
Sasha Kelley is a licensed clinical social worker with 11 years of experience. She holds LICSW and LCSW credentials and practices out of Pennsylvania. She works with adults around stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, parenting concerns, and coping with life changes.
Sasha helps people who are navigating shifts in their lives. She talks through day-to-day stress and longer transitions. She offers practical support for parenting strain and for people wrestling with self-worth or low mood.
She also addresses body image concerns and issues common to women and young adults. Sasha provides support for caregiver stress, people dealing with substance use or process addictions, and those facing hospice or end-of-life questions. She uses methods grounded in evidence to help clients build coping skills.
Sasha prefers a straightforward, collaborative style. Sessions focus on identifying what is most urgent, practicing manageable skills, and checking how changes feel in real life. She helps people set small goals and notice progress over time.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and Sasha is not taking international clients.
How sessions work
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Two common evidence-based approaches Sasha draws on are skill-focused therapies and problem-focused work. Skill-focused work teaches concrete techniques for managing anxiety, low mood, or stress, such as breath work, activity planning, and thought tracking. Problem-focused work helps people break down a current difficulty into steps and test small changes to see what helps in daily life.A second strand is work that attends to life transitions and identity concerns. This involves talking through values and roles, clarifying priorities, and experimenting with new habits to support changes like parenting adjustments or shifting life purpose. These methods aim to be practical and oriented to everyday life rather than abstract discussion.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and what they can realistically practice between sessions. That decision is revisited as needs change.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Confirm the current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit appointments around caregiving, work, or busy schedules. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, or remove travel time so people can use a lunch break or evening slot more easily.
