About
Krassimir Kirtchev is an NCPS-accredited counsellor and therapist based in the United Kingdom with 12 years of experience working in private practice.
He holds diplomas in Counselling and Psychotherapy, Hypnotherapy, and CBT/REBT (Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy), and trained in Counselling and Psychotherapy at Chrysalis UK. He also completed a diploma in CBT/REBT at The College of Cognitive Behavioural Therapies. In addition to his counselling qualifications, he is a qualified Shiatsu practitioner, remedial massage therapist, and back pain specialist.
After training at Chrysalis, he adopted an integrative approach to therapy, combining client-centred, psychodynamic and CBT/REBT methods to better understand and support adults with a range of psycho-emotional and psychosomatic difficulties.
Complementing his talking therapies, his training in Shiatsu and remedial massage informs his work with pronounced psychosomatic conditions (where physical pain and physiological problems arise from underlying psycho-emotional issues), somatopsychic conditions (where physiological problems contribute to emotional stress or anxiety), and common musculoskeletal complaints such as back, neck and joint pain from strains or injuries.
His professional background is varied, including 14 years of military service in Bulgaria, a civil mechanical engineering qualification from a Military Academy, training in electrical installations in the United Kingdom at secondary school level, and roles involving safety-critical work for LUL, team leading and maintenance engineering. These experiences have contributed to his practical understanding of people and workplace challenges.
Krassimir describes his approach as informed by phronesis, or practical wisdom, which he applies in sessions to help clients make meaningful changes. He works with people presenting high levels of distress, including worries, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem, and with those whose symptoms affect family or marriage relationships, work or other interpersonal connections.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?
Many people ask whether therapy delivered online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. A major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the way that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Therapists offering online work are licensed professionals, and clients may switch to a different therapist if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, evidence-based route to support for everyday mental health challenges.How much experience does Krassimir Kirtchev have?
