About Aruna

Counsellor, BACP, 6 years' experience. Aruna Ramkalowon helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship and grief issues. She also supports work on self-esteem, motivation and coping with life changes.

Aruna works in an integrative way, drawing on client-centred approaches alongside cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic ideas. She uses Jungian concepts and mindfulness practices when they fit a person's needs. Sessions focus on clear conversation about what is causing distress and on practical steps that can make daily life easier.

Her style aims to be straightforward and respectful. She adapts her approach to how each person prefers to work, and she and the client agree on goals and next steps together. Tasks between sessions may include simple reflections, mindful noticing, or experiments to try different ways of coping.

Aruna's background includes six years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is recorded here as BACP.

People often come for help with parenting strain, workplace stress, intimacy concerns and grief near the end of life. She also offers support around addiction, ADHD-related difficulties and issues that arise with ageing and caregiving.

To begin, clients are invited to use the site matching process and schedule a first session. The first meetings are used to set practical goals and decide which combination of methods will be most useful.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. It helps when someone needs a clearer sense of what they want and how they respond to stress.

Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses practical exercises to test new ways of responding. It is often used for anxiety, mood and coping with life changes.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. These techniques can help with stress, compassion fatigue and everyday overwhelm.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Early sessions are used to agree goals and try methods that suit the client's preferences and situation. The therapist will check in and adjust the balance of approaches as needed.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals use online sessions to carry out the same therapeutic tasks they would in person, such as reflections, behavioural experiments and mindfulness practices.
