“Working with Sasha has augmented not only the technical in writing itself but also depended my relationship with the creative process. Sasha helped me clear the cobweb of invisible defense mechanisms that got in the way of full expression. Sasha is singular in his ability to combine mind, heart, and gut to guide my writing in a world filled with folks who over-index in one. He is the artist’s therapist.
A fruitful partnership with Sasha demands real vulnerability, self-honesty, and accountability. He is not here to babysit you. He cannot give you the fire; it must already be within. If you are ready to proceed, buckle up and let the metapmorphosis unfold.”

“Oh my path to health, I came across Sasha as a writing coach, I really thought it would be… well … writing. It was so much more. Working with Sasha not only widened my slim existence at that point, but was also deeply thoughtful, playful, self-reflective, and ultimately healing in a way I never expected. I’ve worked with many “coaches” and although Sasha will say he’s a writing coach, he’s much more than that.
” –Marisa Rowland
"Such is Sasha’s skill in holding space for me to create in ways I’d never thought possible, and such is the love and care he dedicates to his probes, pokes and prods that I’ve found the confidence to think of myself not just as someone who writes, but who might just be a writer. So be careful what you wish for: working with Sasha might just change your life.”
