Srab Der , BACP

Srab Der is a BACP-registered therapist - a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy - and a licensed NLP Practitioner (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) who combines clinical training with ongoing academic study. He is a doctoral candidate in psychotherapy with a specific focus on trauma and resilience, and he brings five years of professional experience to his work.

His practice draws on a range of therapeutic methods, including Person-Centred Therapy (PCT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), and mindfulness techniques. These approaches allow him to explore both immediate coping strategies and deeper underlying patterns so clients can address the root causes of emotional and psychological difficulties.

Srab has worked with people facing depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, obsessive-compulsive issues, and substance misuse and addictions. He supports clients who want to improve their careers, relationships, health, or personal growth by developing individualized therapeutic plans tailored to each person’s needs and preferences. His work combines personal insight with evidence-informed methods to create a collaborative space for change.

Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, Srab aims to help individuals identify practical steps and meaningful shifts that align with their goals and values.

Approach-focused care delivered online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify their values and take committed action while learning to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being led by them. It can be helpful for stress, anxiety, depression, and situations that call for long-term behavior change.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns and emotional responses, helping people understand and reorganize how they relate to others. It often supports work on relationship difficulties, intimacy-related concerns, and trauma-related attachment wounds.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the center of the process, offering empathic listening and a nonjudgmental stance so clients can discover their own solutions. This approach is useful for building self-esteem, processing life changes, and supporting personal growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Srab works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts techniques over time so the work remains practical and aligned with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online therapy with Srab is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care when life and location change, and they allow therapists and licensed professionals to tailor sessions to the format that works best for each person.
