About Deena

Deena Ramkhelawon works as a counsellor in the United Kingdom with 17 years of experience. She draws on a range of approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship or family concerns. Her style is warm and non-judgemental and she aims to make starting therapy less daunting for those who are worried or uncertain.

Deena offers a calm space where people can talk through thoughts, feelings and everyday struggles. She uses person-focused listening alongside practical tools to help people find clarity and build coping skills. Sessions look at what matters most to the person and move at a pace they can manage.

Her work covers common life problems such as parenting and career stress, and more persistent difficulties like obsessive thoughts, panic attacks and mood disorders. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver strain, divorce or separation, and money or work-related worries. Cultural background and multicultural concerns are acknowledged in the conversations.

Deena uses a mix of therapeutic methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic thought. This blend helps people understand patterns, practise new responses, and set practical steps for change.

She explains things plainly and includes education about conditions when helpful, so people know what to expect and can take part in planning their care. The aim is steady progress and clearer choices for moving forward.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can support those dealing with anxiety, low mood or life changes by focusing on small, value-led steps.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help people understand repeated relationship difficulties, abandonment worries and attachment concerns, and work on new ways of relating.

Finding the right approach often happens together. The therapist will discuss options and try things in ways that suit the person’s goals and preferences. This collaborative process means sessions can change over time as needs develop.

Online formats offer flexibility for different days and routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging lets people reflect in their own time. These choices make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health commitments while keeping focus on practical progress and emotional understanding.
