About Sama

Sama Koroma helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and career uncertainty. He also supports those coping with major life changes, grief, addiction concerns and relationship or intimacy difficulties. People turn to him for help with parenting strains, eating issues, bipolar or depression, and challenges linked to attachment and abandonment.

Sama works in a warm, straightforward way. He aims to make sessions feel conversational and practical. Clients can expect a calm space to talk through what is hard and try out new ways of handling it.

With 15 years of experience, Sama draws on approaches that focus on the person in the room and on emotional connection. He blends client-centred listening with therapy that looks at patterns from earlier life. That mix helps uncover why some problems keep returning and what can change now.

Sessions are used to set clear goals and to practise small steps between meetings. Sama offers tools for managing distress, improving communication and rebuilding a sense of control. Therapy can also explore deeper feelings tied to family of origin, abandonment or attachment wounds.

Sama is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He works with English-speaking clients in the United Kingdom and with international clients by online formats. If someone prefers flexible session types, he offers several options to suit different routines and needs.

Approach and online therapy options

Sama uses client-centred work that focuses on the person in front of him, listening closely and shaping the therapy around each individual’s needs. This approach helps with low self-esteem, anxiety and everyday coping by prioritising what the client finds most important.

He also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which looks at feelings and attachment patterns in relationships. EFT can be helpful for people struggling with intimacy-related issues, communication problems and the effects of abandonment or attachment wounds.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey, not a fixed choice up front. Sama discusses options with each person and together they decide what feels most useful for current goals and preferences. That collaborative process means methods can change as needs evolve.

Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals in formats that fit modern life. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit people who prefer writing or need flexible timing between calls. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work and family routines.
