About Srab
Srab Der is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of clinical experience. He works with people who bring stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, and difficulties with sleep or eating. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients.
He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ways of working, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). In practice this means identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses. He helps people notice patterns and try new behaviours that fit their goals.
Sessions focus on clear steps and practical skills. Conversations often include looking at thinking styles, developing coping strategies, and practising emotional regulation skills from DBT. When relationships, attachment or early loss are important, he draws on attachment-based ideas to map how past patterns affect current interactions.
For people facing complex problems such as long-term health issues, caregiving strain, or co-occurring concerns, he combines approaches to address both symptoms and day-to-day functioning. He also offers coaching-style work for career and practical life goals.
Getting started involves completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How CBT, ACT and attachment ideas work in online sessions
Srab often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify specific thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. CBT sessions focus on clear steps, simple experiments and skills you can practise between meetings to reduce anxiety or improve mood.He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult feelings and commit to actions that matter to them. ACT emphasises values-based goals and practical steps rather than trying to remove every uncomfortable thought or feeling. Attachment-based ideas are used when relationship patterns or early loss affect current connections; these approaches map patterns and teach different ways of relating.
Finding the best approach is collaborative. He will work with each person to agree which methods to try, adapting the mix as goals and needs become clearer. Clients and therapist review progress and change direction when something is not helping.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around work or caregiving, using shorter check-ins when time is limited, and avoiding travel. Online sessions make it easier to keep continuity of care when people move or travel, while the focus remains on skills practice and measurable steps.
