About Abhishek
Abhishek Chavan is an AASW social worker with three years of professional experience based in Australia. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, sleeping problems, low self‑esteem, career worries and depression. He speaks English, Hindi and Marathi.
Abhishek focuses on practical, down-to-earth conversations. He creates time to listen and to help people name what is getting in the way. Sessions concentrate on small, manageable steps people can try between meetings. He uses clear, simple language rather than clinical terms.
His work draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns that shape thoughts and feelings. He also uses client-centred methods that let the person set the pace. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps break unhelpful thinking and build different habits around sleep, worry and confidence.
Abhishek supports people who feel stuck by looking at how everyday routines, work pressures and past hurts affect wellbeing. He helps with tasks such as improving sleep routines, practising how to speak up, and setting realistic career goals. The focus is on what can change now rather than on long explanations.
People who prefer straightforward, task-oriented sessions may find his approach helpful. To start, a short questionnaire and an initial appointment are used to agree goals and plan next steps. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Abhishek uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationship patterns influence feelings and behaviour; this can help when trust, separation or abandonment issues affect everyday life. He also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and to practise different thinking and behaviour, which can be useful for worry, sleep problems and low confidence. Client-Centred Therapy is used alongside these approaches to ensure sessions follow the person’s own priorities and pace.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will discuss which methods fit the person’s goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as they go. Choices are made together so sessions focus on useful, practical steps rather than one fixed method.
Session options are not listed in the biography, so confirm current formats before booking. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy week by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or making it easier to join from different locations. These practical benefits can make it simpler to keep regular appointments and try techniques between sessions.
