About Aruna
Aruna Ramkalowon welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by life changes and parenting pressures. She is Aruna and offers calm, practical support for stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and relationship concerns. Her approachable style aims to make the first step easier for a worried parent or carer.
Aruna has six years of professional experience and holds BACP, which is noted as her credential. She describes her work as integrative and adapts conversations and plans to each person's needs. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps rather than big, sudden changes.
Her approach draws on several talking therapies. She uses client-centred ways of working to prioritise what matters most to the client. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviour in daily life.
Aruna includes mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas when these suit the person. Jungian concepts may be used to look at personal meaning and patterns that repeat over time. The result is a mixed approach picked to fit the presenting concern and the client’s preferences.
Many people come for help with parenting strain, family pressures and balancing work and caring roles. Others seek support with addiction, compassion fatigue, career uncertainty, hoarding or end-of-life planning. Aruna aims to listen without judgement and shape sessions around realistic goals.
To start, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Fees vary with location and the service uses a cancellable subscription model.
How Aruna’s approaches work for online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters most to the client. It helps people feel heard and can be useful for parenting worries, grief and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to try between sessions for anxiety, low mood and stress.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Aruna will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and daily life. That means adapting tools and pace to match preferences and what is actually helpful in practice.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare and care duties, and it can allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss practical arrangements with the therapist so sessions align with your schedule and the kind of contact you prefer.
