Srab Der, BACP

Srab Der is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He offers practical, down-to-earth support for people facing stress, anxiety and changes in life. He writes in simple terms and aims to make sessions straightforward and useful from the first meeting.

He uses a blend of approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. Sessions focus on learning new ways to respond to painful thoughts and feelings, building stronger emotional connections, and developing clearer daily routines. The work can include practical coping skills, values-based goal setting and discussing difficult events from the past.

With five years of practice, he has experience supporting people with depression, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, grief and addictions. He also helps with concerns such as sleep, eating, parenting strain, work stress and low self-esteem. Additional interests include attachment issues, body image, caring for someone long term, and complex health concerns.

Srab works in English and accepts international clients. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to the client's needs. The emphasis is on clear steps you can use between meetings to feel better and manage everyday challenges.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that fit their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions where people want clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build healthier emotional responses and connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to a client's goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change over time as needs shift.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose a calmer setting for talking or avoid needing to be on camera every time. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, homework and skills practice to work well in online sessions.
