Zayd Awan, BACP

Zayd Awan is a holistic therapist based in the United Kingdom who approaches therapy as both careful emotional work and an invitation to fuller living. He supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family difficulties, grief, addictions, LGBT concerns, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting and career challenges, bipolar disorder, ADHD and other related struggles. His practice treats personal difficulties as gateways to learning new ways to live, relate and recover a sense of purpose.

Work with him can blend reflective conversation with creative and embodied practices when welcomed by the client. He may draw on breathwork, energy work, song and sound, yoga, massage, movement and dance, psychodrama, nature-based activities, imagination and dream exploration, and open, respectful discussion of sexuality and kink culture. These options are presented alongside practical skill-building so that clients can develop tools for coping and growth.

He is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK that sets standards for practice. In addition to therapeutic work, he also offers coaching-informed support around life purpose, motivation and career, and he accepts international clients through remote sessions.
