About Gul
Gul Nayab is an AHPRA-registered counsellor with three years of clinical experience in Australia. She focuses on easing stress and anxiety and supporting people who feel stuck by building small, realistic steps forward. Her manner is warm and respectful, and she aims to make the first conversation straightforward and non-judgemental.
Gul listens to each person's story and then tailors the sessions to what they need. She works on practical coping skills for anxiety and low mood, and on ways to improve self-worth and motivation.
Background and approach
For relationship strains and communication problems she helps people name patterns and practise clearer ways to connect. When trauma or past abuse is part of the picture, Gul moves at a pace people can tolerate. She teaches techniques to manage intense feelings and reduce day-to-day overwhelm.
This helps clients feel steadier enough to consider deeper work when they are ready. Gul also supports people through life transitions such as divorce or workplace stress. She helps with setting boundaries, rebuilding routines, and finding a clearer sense of purpose.
Sessions are conversational and practical, focused on changes people can make between meetings. Sessions are offered in English, Punjabi and Urdu. Gul recognises that starting therapy takes courage, and she aims to make the process as simple and respectful as possible.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange the first session.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Many people find it helpful when therapy focuses on practical techniques they can use between sessions. One common approach teaches grounding and breath-based strategies to reduce anxiety and intense emotions; this helps when stress feels overwhelming and when quick calming tools are needed. Another approach concentrates on skills for noticing thoughts and changing unhelpful patterns; it helps with low mood, worry and repetitive thinking by offering straightforward tools to practise.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and any barriers, then suggest options together. That collaborative process lets the person try strategies and adjust them if something does not fit.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit quick reflections, ongoing support between appointments, or people who prefer typing to talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on practical progress.
