About Sama

Sama Koroma works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and a wide range of life challenges using a collaborative, person-focused approach. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 15 years of experience.

He helps people who feel overwhelmed, stuck or unsure how to manage change. Sessions focus on talking through practical problems, exploring emotions and improving communication. He also supports those dealing with loss, grief, addiction-related issues and difficulties around intimacy and self-esteem.

Sama draws on client-centred practice to make conversations person-led and respectful. He uses elements of emotionally-focused work to look at patterns in close relationships and psychodynamic ideas to consider how past experiences influence present behaviour. Existential approaches are used when clients want to address meaning, purpose or big life questions.

In the room he aims for clear, direct discussion and practical ideas for everyday life. He may help clients spot repeating patterns, try out new ways of relating and develop coping strategies for stress and mood difficulties. Sessions are collaborative and paced to what the person is ready to look at.

Across his 15 years of practice he has worked with a broad range of concerns including trauma and abuse, parenting and fatherhood issues, body image and eating matters, ADHD, bipolar and mood-related problems. He offers counselling in English and accepts international clients.

How his therapeutic approaches work remotely

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person and what they bring to sessions. The counsellor listens with minimal direction so the client can set the topics, helping with self-understanding and practical choices. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) pays attention to patterns in close relationships and the emotions that drive them; it can help when relationship patterns, intimacy or attachment issues are a concern.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options, check what feels most relevant, and adapt the way they work to the client’s needs and goals in a collaborative way.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into busy life schedules, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it possible for people outside the UK to arrange work with registered or accredited professionals and to maintain continuity of care when travel or relocation occurs.
