About Sama
Sama Koroma helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed or stuck. He supports people dealing with career uncertainty, grief, parenting strain, and the effects of trauma and abuse. He also works with issues like self-esteem, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and ADHD-related challenges.
Sama takes a warm, straightforward approach in sessions. He creates a respectful space where people can talk openly and be heard. Conversations focus on understanding what matters to the client now and finding practical steps forward.
Background and approach
He draws on client-centred work to follow each person’s pace and priorities. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas help where feelings and attachment patterns are central. He also uses psychodynamic and existential perspectives to look at longer patterns and life meaning.
Across 15 years in practice Sama has supported people through divorce and blended family issues, abandonment and attachment concerns, body image and eating difficulties, and compassion fatigue. He has experience with anger, bipolar and mood problems, and a wide range of family of origin issues. Sama holds BACP registration, which appears after his name as BACP.
He is based in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English to people in other countries as needed. The first session is a chance to set goals and try a practical step. Ongoing work is tailored to the person’s needs, with choices about pace, focus and method.

Approach and online therapy options
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on following the person’s lead, helping them name what matters and decide what to change. It is useful when someone needs support building self-trust and making decisions that feel right for them.Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and the emotions that drive them. It can help people understand attachment needs and shift stuck cycles in close connections.
Sama will work with each person to find the best approach. Choosing a method is collaborative - he listens to the client’s goals, concerns and preferences and adapts the work as it progresses. That means the plan can change if something different seems more helpful over time.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues when discussing relationships or emotions. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer to write, need brief support between meetings, or want to fit therapy into a busy day. Registered or accredited professionals provide these formats so people can access therapy from different places and schedules.
