About Srab

Srab Der is a counsellor who uses a mix of talking approaches to help people through difficult patches. He is registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings five years of practice to sessions. He focuses on common issues such as stress, anxiety and depression, and also supports people facing relationship strain and major life changes, including midlife transitions.

He draws on approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based work to shape practical sessions. That means looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, clarifying values and noticing relationship dynamics. Sessions aim to make everyday steps feel manageable rather than overwhelming.

Clients may bring concerns such as grief, parenting strain, sleep or eating problems, anger, low self-esteem, or challenges around intimacy and sexual expression. He also notes experience with trauma, addiction and long-term illness, and helps people consider how those issues link to current life difficulties.

Srab explains ideas in simple terms and works collaboratively to set clear, achievable goals. He combines talking, reflection and practical exercises tailored to what each person needs week to week. He will help create a plan that fits a person's life and priorities.

He practices from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and are matched before scheduling.

How his approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and major life shifts where direction feels unclear.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours interact. It offers practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and develop new coping habits for worry, sleep problems or anger.

Attachment-Based work pays attention to how close relationships affect feelings and behaviour. It helps people understand patterns that show up in friendships and intimate relationships and how to shift those patterns over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That may mean mixing ideas from different approaches and checking in regularly to see what is helping.

The practical benefit of online therapy is being able to fit sessions into a busy life. Online options can make it easier to join from different locations, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. The profile does not list which specific session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can help shape session frequency and length to suit everyday commitments.
