About Sabine
Sabine Kermani is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, eating and body image concerns, addiction, self-esteem and relationship difficulties. She works with people dealing with grief, intimacy-related issues and a wide range of related problems. Sabine communicates in English and offers sessions to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Sabine draws on 13 years of experience across community, hospital, personal and NHS settings.
Background and approach
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. She is completing a doctorate in counselling psychology, researching the lived experience of romantic obsession. Her style is curious and patient.
She aims to help people make sense of their past and present, and to find practical ways to move forward. Sessions are collaborative and tailored, with a focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. Sabine uses a pluralistic approach, blending methods to suit each client.
That can include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas and trauma-focused work when relevant. She also draws on client-centred and existential perspectives to support meaning-making and personal values. People often come for help with attachment issues, abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, or challenges linked to autism and neurodiversity.
She also supports those affected by chronic illness, caregiver stress, codependency and communication or control problems. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on clear next steps.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Sabine commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas alongside trauma-focused work when needed. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and to take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and problems with avoidance. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop more helpful ways of relating to others and to themselves. Trauma-focused work involves gently addressing past harms and building skills to manage memories, triggers and emotional reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sabine works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals and preferences. She will check in about what seems to help and adapt techniques over time so sessions feel relevant and focused on agreed priorities.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller connection is wanted. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or suit lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text messaging can work for people who prefer written reflection or need more frequent brief contact. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or family life while keeping a consistent therapeutic relationship with registered or accredited professionals.
