About Abhishek

Abhishek Chavan is an AASW counsellor who helps people working through stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem and career concerns. He welcomes straightforward conversations and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about what’s worrying them. Seeking change takes courage, and he aims to support each person through those first steps.

He uses practical, person-focused methods that help people unpick patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions often focus on understanding how past relationships shape current feelings, and on noticing unhelpful thinking that feeds anxiety and low mood. He also works on everyday skills for better sleep, motivation and confidence.

Abhishek’s practice draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). These approaches are used to help with mood shifts, relationship-related worries, and body image concerns among other issues. He aims to keep sessions clear and grounded so people leave with something they can try between meetings.

With three years of professional experience in Australia, he combines empathy with practical suggestions. He speaks English, Hindi and Marathi, which can help people explain sensitive matters in the language they’re most comfortable with. If someone wants to start, he asks them to complete a short questionnaire and then arrange a suitable time to begin.

Fees vary with location and therapist availability and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Prospective clients should follow the Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current emotions and reactions. Online discussions using this approach can help people notice attachment patterns and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre of sessions. Through steady, non-judgemental listening the therapist helps people feel heard and to develop their own solutions for issues like low self-esteem or career stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss each person’s needs, goals and preferences and recommend a way forward that fits the presenting problem. Decisions about techniques are made collaboratively and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. It can also make it easier to maintain regular check-ins during life transitions or when juggling work and appointments. Session formats supported here are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current options before booking.
