About Aruna
Aruna Ramkalowon is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief and loss, low self-esteem, motivation difficulties and confidence issues. She also supports those dealing with career challenges, addictions, compassion fatigue and changes in life circumstances.
Aruna draws on several counselling approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and try different ways of responding. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps alongside reflective conversation. She aims to make the first step into counselling straightforward and manageable.
Her approach mixes structured techniques and open listening. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are used to identify thinking and behaviour patterns that keep problems going. Client-Centred work is used to create space for people to speak about what matters most to them.
Aruna also uses elements from Jungian, mindfulness and psychodynamic approaches when they fit the situation. These methods can help with understanding long-standing patterns, managing strong emotions and building day-to-day coping skills. She adapts the mix of methods to the person’s presenting needs and goals.
Sessions are delivered in English from the United Kingdom. Aruna does not accept international clients at this time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the service button provided.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Aruna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centred methods as core parts of her work. CBT involves identifying specific thoughts and behaviours that maintain problems and then testing small, practical changes to see what helps. Client-Centred work focuses on listening and following what the person finds important, giving space for reflection and personal priorities.She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help manage strong feelings and on psychodynamic ideas when looking at longer-standing patterns. Finding the right mix is collaborative - the person and counsellor decide together which methods to try based on needs and goals.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find online counselling easier to fit around work, childcare and travel because it removes commuting time. Sessions can also be adjusted for quieter check-ins, shorter practical reviews, or longer reflective conversations depending on what fits someone’s routine and goals.
