About Saifur
Dr. Saifur Rahman helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, addictions and questions about identity. He also supports those dealing with grief, low self‑esteem, parenting strains, sleep or eating issues, and major life changes.
He works in English and accepts clients internationally from the United Kingdom. He keeps things simple and practical in sessions. He listens first, then helps people set clear, manageable goals.
Sessions focus on small changes that build confidence and reduce overwhelm over time.
Background and approach
Dr Rahman uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Client‑Centred methods and Solution‑Focused ideas. The aim is to help people notice what matters, practise new responses and solve current problems that feel urgent.
He holds HCPC registration. He has five years of practice experience and has worked across different settings. That background informs how he balances practical tools with thoughtful conversation.
People who come to him often want straightforward steps and calm guidance. He asks about what’s working and what’s not, then co‑creates a plan to move forward. If you prefer clear, compassionate support and practical strategies, he may be a helpful option.

How Saifur works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that feel like a good fit. That collaborative process may include blending techniques from different approaches to meet immediate needs and longer term aims.
Online therapy can make fitting sessions into everyday life easier, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check‑ins that fit a lunch break. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can guide how the chosen approach can adapt to online sessions and help you plan a schedule that suits your routine.
