About Aruna

Aruna Ramkalowon greets people with a calm, straightforward approach. She is a BACP counsellor with six years of experience. Aruna focuses on work and wellbeing alongside common life stresses and relationship concerns. She aims to make the first step into counselling feel less daunting and meets people with sensitivity and respect.

Aruna uses clear, practical conversations to help people manage anxiety, stress and depression. She also supports those coping with grief, changes in life, parenting pressures, workplace difficulties and issues with self-esteem. Discussions are shaped around what matters most to each person and what they want to change.

Her style is integrative, drawing on different ways of working to suit the person in front of her. That means sessions may include gentle exploration of past patterns, practical steps to manage moods, and mindful techniques to ease tension. Aruna explains options and chooses methods together with each client.

She is comfortable talking about more complex concerns too, such as addiction, compassion fatigue, attachment questions and ageing-related stress. Aruna pays attention to cultural background and how it affects everyday life and choices.

People who meet her can expect a conversational and collaborative tone. Aruna invites clients to set goals and check progress as work continues. To begin, she asks people to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

Practical therapy approaches for online care

Aruna commonly uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and helping people find their own solutions through a warm, non-judgemental conversation; it can help with low mood, confidence and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, stress and mood difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Aruna works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. She explains options, tests approaches gently in sessions, and adjusts plans as progress unfolds.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around busy days, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins during difficult periods. It also lets conversations continue when job or family demands make in-person visits harder. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, can help design a practical plan that fits everyday life and commitments.
