About Sama
Sama Koroma is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 15 years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and the fallout of trauma and abuse.
He helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unclear about next steps. Sessions focus on naming difficult emotions, recognising repeated patterns, and finding practical ways to cope with life changes and career strain. He also supports concerns such as addiction, eating issues, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Sama draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside client-centred and psychodynamic approaches. That means conversations often look at how emotions and attachment shape reactions and everyday relationships. He uses open, direct talk that helps people identify what matters beneath the surface feelings.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the person's needs. Sama listens for repeated patterns from family of origin, attachment wounds, or past losses, and then helps people try different responses in the moment. He will suggest simple coping techniques alongside deeper work on meaning and relationship dynamics.
People come for short-term practical support or for longer exploration of recurring problems like abandonment fears, codependency, commitment issues, or communication difficulties. Sama accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session through the online options.
How EFT and related approaches work in online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with core emotions and attachment patterns that shape relationship and personal problems. It helps people name painful feelings and try new ways of responding to close others or to difficult internal states.Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the centre of sessions, with the counsellor listening closely and reflecting what matters most. This approach supports people who need time to make sense of their feelings and to set their own goals.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and past experiences together and adjust the mix of EFT, client-centred listening or psychodynamic reflection as needed. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as needs shift.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time so sessions can be scheduled more easily. Different formats suit different circumstances, so check the available session options before booking. The therapist will help choose a format that fits your routine and supports the kind of emotional or attachment work you want to do.
