About Awais
Awais Ali Warriach is an AASW social worker with five years of professional experience in Australia. He helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, anger, depression and the effects of trauma and abuse. He also supports those struggling with self-esteem, motivation and confidence. Sessions are available in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu.
Awais works from the view that each person knows their own story and brings strengths to cope with hard times. He uses practical conversation to identify what is getting in the way of calmer reactions and more steady mood. The focus is on simple, real skills rather than theory-heavy explanations.
People come to him for help with everyday frustrations and bigger setbacks. He talks through ways to notice triggers, reduce impulsive reactions and rebuild trust with others after conflict. He also assists with sleep and eating concerns that often follow stress and low mood.
His background includes five years of client work across mood disorders, addiction-related problems and relationship tensions. That experience feeds into short-term plans and longer-term goal-setting, depending on what each person needs. Awais aims to keep sessions straightforward and useful.
Practical supports such as planning small behaviour changes and improving communication are a regular part of his work. He encourages clients to try steps between sessions and to reflect on what helps. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Evidence-based techniques and online sessions
Awais draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills people can use straight away. One commonly used approach teaches people to recognise triggers and practise calm responses step by step; this helps with anger, impulsivity and stressful reactions. Another approach concentrates on changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours to reduce anxiety and depressed mood, using short exercises and behaviour experiments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Awais will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped in the past, then suggest options to try. He treats the process as collaborative and adjusts plans based on how a person responds over time.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow a quicker check-in during a lunch break, or let someone avoid travel time. If a phone or lower-bandwidth session suits a quieter check-in, that can also be discussed when arranging appointments.
