About Srab
Srab Der is a counsellor who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people facing money stress and other life pressures. He holds BACP accreditation, and draws on a range of talking therapies to help people manage anxiety, low mood and relationship strain. He welcomes conversations about financial and career-related worries alongside wider emotional concerns.
In sessions he aims for clear, simple goals. He listens first, then helps people notice patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions may cover coping skills for anxiety, pacing through grief, or planning changes that ease day-to-day money stress. He also supports people working through past trauma that shapes present decisions.
His background includes five years of practice working with depression, addictions, OCD and relationship difficulties. That experience informs how he balances practical steps with deeper exploration. He also draws on approaches that focus on values, thoughts and attachment styles to tailor work to each person.
Srab explains options and works at a steady pace so people can try new ways without feeling overwhelmed. He supports people who are juggling work, parenting pressures and money concerns to make achievable changes. Sessions aim to build skills people can use between meetings.
People can expect a collaborative, down-to-earth style that connects therapy to everyday choices. If financial worries or life transitions are part of the difficulty, he will help make them a clear focus of the work.
Therapeutic approaches for online work and everyday change
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small committed steps toward them, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is often useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions where values-driven action matters.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and testing practical alternatives. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress linked to money or work problems.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns in close relationships. This can be helpful when patterns of trust, closeness or conflict affect emotional wellbeing and decision making.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they will try approaches that match the person’s needs and adjust the plan if something does not fit.
If you prefer online sessions, check the current session options before booking as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit regular sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets the therapist focus on practical tasks between meetings, such as homework or planning steps to address money-related stress.
