Srab Der, BACP

Srab Der is a therapist registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He uses practical, person-focused methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and issues around intimacy and addiction. He writes simply and listens carefully to figure out what matters most to each person.

He draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based work and cognitive behavioural strategies. Sessions aim to identify patterns that cause pain and to test small, achievable changes. The work also pays attention to past wounds that affect current relationships and feelings of jealousy or abandonment.

Srab has five years of practice experience and supports people with a wide range of concerns. These include mood problems, trauma and abuse, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD-related challenges and career stress. He also helps people navigate parenting strain, caregiving stress and complex health or chronic pain issues.

His counselling style is collaborative and straightforward. He helps people set short-term goals and practises skills together in session. Over time the focus can shift to longer-term patterns and how to live in line with personal values.

Sessions are conducted in English and Srab works with international clients. Before booking, people should confirm the current session formats offered through the service.

How this therapist uses evidence-based approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then take committed action based on personal values. It can help with anxiety, stress, low mood and struggles around jealousy or commitment. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns in close relationships and helps people develop different ways of connecting and managing fear of abandonment.

The right approach is often found together. The therapist will listen to your concerns and preferences, explain different methods, and try approaches that fit your goals. Treatment is collaborative and adapted as needs change, so you can experiment and change direction if something does not feel helpful.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when a full session is not needed. It also lets people work from wherever they are based and helps maintain continuity of care across locations, while the therapist and client agree the practical details that suit them both.
