About Sabine
Sabine Kermani helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, addictive behaviours, eating and body image concerns, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and difficulties linked to trauma or abuse. She also supports those facing challenges around self-esteem, attachment and complex life changes such as adoption or blended family dynamics.
Sabine works with LGBT concerns and with a range of co-occurring problems that often come up together. She uses a straightforward, curious style in sessions.
Background and approach
Sabine listens with patience and asks clear questions to help people make sense of what they are feeling. Her way of working is flexible and practical, shaped around each person rather than a single method. Sabine is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has around 13 years of experience across different clinical settings.
That experience includes community and hospital work in the United Kingdom and overseas, where she supported people with anxiety, depression, substance use and eating-related difficulties. Her approach draws on a mix of therapies such as cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based perspectives and client-centred ways of working. She aims to help people understand patterns, try new actions and build self-compassion.
Sessions tend to focus on practical steps and on exploring what matters to the person. Sabine encourages people to set achievable goals, test small changes between meetings, and reflect on what helps them feel more in control and connected.

Online support
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Sabine will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then shape sessions collaboratively. She frequently blends methods so the plan evolves with what actually helps the client.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual connection helps the conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a short check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typed communication or want more flexible, brief interventions between longer appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, study and family commitments while keeping therapeutic continuity.
