About Babak
Babak Razmgir uses a person-centred approach to help people work through stress, anxiety, grief and low mood. He is an ACA counsellor with ten years of professional experience. He aims to make first steps easier and welcomes honest conversation about what is hard right now.
In sessions he focuses on what people notice in their daily life. He listens without judgement and helps people name thoughts and feelings. He draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to offer practical ways to manage worry and low mood.
How Babak works
Babak also uses Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills and elements of existential thinking when these fit a person's needs. That can mean learning simple emotion-regulation skills, practising ways to face uncomfortable thoughts, or talking about life purpose and meaning. He tailors strategies to each person rather than offering a fixed programme.
He has worked with issues such as self-esteem, ADHD, obsessions and compulsions, and chronic pain or illness. He also supports people dealing with abandonment, commitment concerns, isolation, fatherhood issues, guilt and shame, and communication problems. Sessions are offered in English and Persian and take place online.
Babak aims to create a clear, respectful space where people can say what they are thinking and begin to take small, manageable steps forward.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values; it can help with anxiety, depression and motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and teaches practical skills to change them, which often suits people dealing with worry, low mood or concentration problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will try different ways of working to see what fits. That collaborative process means techniques are chosen together, adjusted over time, and aimed at small, manageable changes.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their life. Video can allow a fuller conversation, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat or messaging suit short check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or mobility limitations while keeping the focus on practical skills and real-life steps.
