About Saifur
Dr. Saifur Rahman is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and has five years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, addictions and a wide range of related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
He favours a straightforward approach. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than complex techniques. Practical strategies and honest conversations are central to his way of working. He uses methods that help people notice what matters to them and take small actions that make a difference.
His practice draws on several evidence-informed approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. Those methods are used to address patterns of thinking, emotional reactivity and the behaviours that keep problems going. He also uses existential and solution-focused ideas when they fit a person’s goals.
People come for help with everyday issues like sleep, eating, parenting and work stress as well as deeper struggles such as trauma, grief, bipolar mood management and addictions. He lists additional focuses including body image, codependency, communication and coping with major life changes.

How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that fit their values. It can help with anger that keeps recurring and with problems where avoidance or rumination gets in the way.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers practical tools for managing strong emotions, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, and developing new coping habits for stress, anxiety or depression.
Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and reflecting to help someone clarify their own goals and decisions. This approach supports people who want to understand what matters to them and build confidence in making changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that best match a person’s goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape sessions week to week so the work stays relevant and usable.
If you want online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking. The practical benefit of remote work is that sessions can fit into busy schedules and reduce travel time. Different formats can also suit quieter surroundings, less video bandwidth, or a shorter check-in during a break at work, so discuss what will work best when you schedule a first appointment.
