About Sabine
Sabine Kermani is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, eating and body image concerns, addictions, and relationship or intimacy difficulties. She also supports those facing grief, family-related strain, and LGBT-related issues. Sabine works with people who are struggling after trauma or abuse and with those dealing with attachment or abandonment worries.
She practises in a pluralistic way, drawing on several approaches to match what each person needs.
Background and approach
That means sessions focus on what feels most helpful for the person in front of her, whether that is exploring patterns of thought, building new coping skills, or understanding relationship dynamics. Sabine is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often shown as BACP.
Sabine trained and worked across London and Hong Kong over more than a decade, and she has 13 years of experience in a range of settings. Her background includes community and hospital work as well as NHS and independent practice roles. She has supported people at different life stages through emotional and behavioural difficulties.
Her approach is curious, patient and empowering. Sessions tend to be conversational and practical. Sabine aims to help people make sense of their experiences and find ways to move forward that fit their values and everyday life.
She is completing a doctorate in Counselling Psychology that explores the lived experience of romantic obsession. That research informs her interest in relationships, attachment, and how past experiences shape current choices.

How Sabine's approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small practical steps towards those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression and stress when someone feels stuck or driven by avoidance. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns, which often helps with anxiety, mood and eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns and how early bonds shape current reactions; it can be helpful for intimacy, abandonment worries and ongoing relationship distress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sabine treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss different options with the person. Together they decide which methods suit the client’s goals, preferences and day-to-day life, and adapt the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation from anywhere, phone sessions suit those with limited bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging offer shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, study or family responsibilities while drawing on the same therapeutic methods used in person.
