Welcome to Ruma Verma Psychotherapy For Individuals and Couples

Psychotherapy is a process of thriving instead of merely surviving.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and struggling with different life situations? Do you want a positive personal change that helps you overcome your issues?

At times, we all need support when we cannot cope - or manage - you're not alone.

Transactional Analysis is a highly accessible form of integrative psychotherapy that helps encourage transformative change and personal growth with greater awareness, insight, and empowerment.

Counselling & Psychotherapy for Individuals (18+) & Couples

I’m Ruma, a fully qualified UKCP-accredited professional psychotherapist based in Twickenham in South West London and borders Surrey, close to Richmond, Hounslow, Feltham, Isleworth, Ealing, Barnes, Sheen, and Putney.

With over fifteen years of experience, I offer online psychotherapy sessions for individuals (18+) and couples on a wide range of issues.

I speak Asian languages, Hindi and Punjabi. I am interested in people and how disconnection or lack of connection with ourselves and or others presents as anxiety, low mood or depression. In many cases this maybe due to certain events that have led you to experience the world as a frightening unwelcoming space but you are unaware of the impact on you. I provide a safe place to process this, to express how it has been experienced by you. I am here to listen to you and collaboratively make sense of it without judgment.

My Approach

I work in-depth in open-ended sessions or longer-term therapy - as in my experience provides more symptom relief as well as the ability to effect long lasting change. I can also work with a shorter term focus mindful of what goals you wish to achieve, symptom relief and feeling heard.

I work in depth in open ended psychotherapy although I can work with you on set period of counselling sessions the length of which we can decide upon together. This depends on your goals and what you wish to achieve and is usually around 10-12 sessions.

Transactional Analysis (TA) incorporates different models and concepts to understand your experience with the critical concept, the belief that we can all change. Psychotherapy can help us in profound ways, not only in solving immediate issues but also in transforming the way we think, feel, and behave. It can unlock our potential by improving our relationships with ourselves and with others.

During lockdown it became necessary to adapt sessions to be given online. I completed the UKCP guidance for working online. I have found that this is an effective and rewarding way to have sessions. There is a different quality of attention with online working. It is very focused and practical. It is accessible wherever you maybe so long as you have privacy and a decent broadband connection. It allows you to accommodate sessions into your own lifestyle and environment which can help you feel more able to be in psychotherapy.
