About Gulnargis

Gulnargis Sharif is a counsellor with ten years of practice in the United Kingdom and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and life changes. She also supports those dealing with grief and loss and people seeking greater motivation and confidence.

Her manner in sessions is straightforward and respectful. She approaches conversations with the view that the client is the expert on their own life.

Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs. Gulnargis aims to build on existing strengths to address what feels most urgent. People commonly bring worries about attachment, guilt, shame and questions of life purpose.

She works with those facing post-traumatic stress and other after-effects of difficult events. In sessions she helps clients talk through immediate coping strategies and longer term ways to rebuild confidence. Gulnargis offers talk-based work that focuses on practical steps alongside reflection.

She listens for patterns that keep problems stuck and tries to turn insights into actions. The goal is to leave each session with one or two clear next steps. Her practice is available to people who are based in the United Kingdom.

Sessions can be held in English or Urdu. If someone is ready to try counselling she asks for a short matching questionnaire to begin and then schedules sessions to suit the client.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Gulnargis lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Gulnargis draws on evidence-based techniques that focus on clear, practical steps people can use between meetings. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behavioural changes that reduce anxiety and low mood. This work is about spotting patterns, trying different responses and measuring what helps.

Another approach focuses on processing grief and loss by creating space to tell your story and to find ways to hold painful memories while moving forward. This method combines listening with guided tasks that support gradual emotional recovery and restoring routine and purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss options with each client and adapt methods to match their goals, preferences and day-to-day life. The plan is agreed collaboratively and reviewed as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people read body language and have a fuller conversation, while phone sessions use less data and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat or messaging is useful for brief check-ins, practical problem solving and when writing helps people collect their thoughts. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and other commitments.
