Deena Ramkhelawon, BACP

Deena Ramkhelawon is a counsellor with 17 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She uses several therapeutic approaches to help people cope with anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties. Her style is warm and accepting, with an emphasis on listening and building trust from the first session.

Deena helps people who face a wide range of concerns, from everyday stress to more persistent mood and anxiety problems. She also supports those dealing with family and parenting strains, career questions, and life changes that feel overwhelming. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on what the person wants to change.

Her work draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic thinking. These approaches are used to help people understand patterns, try new ways of coping, and set manageable goals. Deena adapts her approach to fit each person's needs rather than following a fixed formula.

People meet a calm, empathetic counsellor who makes space for difficult feelings without judgement. Deena encourages exploration of thoughts and emotions, and she supports clients as they test new strategies between sessions. The emphasis is on steady progress at a pace the client feels comfortable with.

Practical matters are handled through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current bonds and trust. This can help with relationship worries, abandonment concerns and parenting strain. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening and building a safe space for people to talk through what matters most to them and find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different methods and collaborate with the client to choose what feels most helpful. That choice can change as sessions progress, and treatment is adapted to the person's goals and comfort level.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins around work breaks. They also let clients continue work when relocating within the UK or when schedules are unpredictable. Confirm the current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the biography. The focus will be on arranging sessions that suit everyday routines and support steady therapeutic progress.
