About Srab
Srab Der is a BACP counsellor who focuses on practical therapies that aim to make day-to-day life more manageable. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma, and supports those dealing with relationship strain, grief and major life changes. He also helps with issues such as addiction, sleep and eating concerns, low self-esteem and career pressure.
He brings five years of practice that blends structured techniques with a person-centred attitude.
Background and approach
Sessions are straightforward and goal-orientated when needed, or more exploratory when people want to understand the roots of an issue. The style is collaborative - the client sets priorities and Srab shapes the work around those goals. Srab uses approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy.
These methods can help with emotional regulation, changing unhelpful patterns and strengthening relationships with oneself and others. He tailors the mix to the problem a person brings. He has particular experience with areas such as abandonment and attachment-related concerns, blended family issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and body image.
Srab also supports people navigating intimacy-related questions, kink and alternative sex culture, and challenges tied to parenting or adoption and foster care. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged for people in the United Kingdom or internationally. The work aims to be practical, steady and focused on what the person wants to change next.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and addictive behaviours.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers tools for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and it is useful when someone struggles with intense emotions or repeated crises.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and day-to-day challenges and then suggest which methods might suit best. That choice is reviewed together as progress is made.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from anywhere, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a short break, live chat can be useful for brief check-ins, and messaging supports asynchronous reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel while keeping the therapeutic focus.
