About Zayd

Zayd Awan is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. He focuses on anxiety, stress, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression and other life challenges. He also works with relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, LGBT concerns, parenting matters, and neurodiversity-related topics such as ADHD.

Zayd describes therapy as practical work alongside personal reflection. Sessions aim to help people manage symptoms and make clearer decisions about relationships, work and everyday life. He frames emotional difficulties as things people can understand and change through steady work and discussion.

His practice includes support for grief, anger, compulsive behaviours and career concerns. He also lists additional focus areas such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, communication problems, jealousy and issues connected to alternative sexual cultures including BDSM and kink. These areas are offered alongside more common concerns like sleeping, eating and intimacy-related problems.

Zayd uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and combines them with conversational exploration. He encourages practical steps, experiments between sessions and checking how changes feel in daily life. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

People who choose him should expect a mix of talking and practical exercises. He accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. Before booking, confirm current session formats and any other practical arrangements.

How therapeutic methods translate to online work

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques involve focused discussion and practical tasks. Cognitive-style approaches help people notice patterns of thinking and test different responses, which is useful for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-informed work looks at relationship patterns, communication and boundaries, which can help with intimacy, abandonment and codependency issues.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that suit those goals and adapt them over time based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to prioritise and how to use session time effectively.

The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If you prefer international scheduling, he accepts international clients, but check time zones and session arrangements when you book.
