Zayd Awan

Zayd Awan is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people managing anger alongside stress, anxiety and relationship issues. He works with adults who want practical ways to change habits, feel calmer and rebuild trust in themselves. Zayd holds BACP registration, which he lists as his professional credential.

His style mixes practical reflection with creative methods when they feel helpful. Sessions can include talking things through, noticing how the body reacts in tense moments, and developing simple routines to reduce overwhelm. He also draws on broader practices such as breathwork, movement, and imagination where appropriate.

Zayd describes therapy as both emotional work and a chance to discover what makes life meaningful. He aims to balance careful listening with tools clients can use between sessions. This can look like new ways to respond in heated moments, or small daily practices to steady mood and focus.

With five years of experience, he supports people facing a wide range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting strain, and sexual identity matters. He also lists focus areas such as attachment, codependency, and issues around intimacy and kink culture.

Sessions are conducted in English and Zayd accepts international clients. He works within a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and pricing varies with location and therapist availability.

How evidence-based techniques work in online sessions

Many of the approaches Zayd mentions are grounded in widely used, evidence-based techniques. He often uses breathwork and body awareness to help people notice and reduce intense feelings; these methods can calm the nervous system and make it easier to think clearly. He also uses conversation-based techniques that help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and rehearse different responses to anger and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Zayd treats therapy as a collaboration - he will talk with each person about what feels useful, try practical tools together, and adjust methods based on goals and preferences. This means sessions can shift between talking, somatic practice, and imaginative exercises depending on what helps most.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping continuity when travel or relocation is an issue. Online work can also make it easier to practice grounding or breath exercises in brief check-ins, or to use audio-only time when a shorter conversation is needed.
