About Reanne
Reanne Farrer is a counsellor who draws on relational and cognitive approaches to help people manage anxiety, stress and grief. She uses a warm, non-judgemental manner to make it easier to talk about difficult experiences. Reanne’s work often focuses on sexual abuse and trauma, gender identity, bereavement including pet loss, and LGBT concerns.
She trained with a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling and holds a Level 4 Diploma in Integrative Counselling. Reanne also has mental health first aid training for young people and additional qualifications in safeguarding and pet bereavement support. Her background spans six years of professional practice in the United Kingdom.
In sessions she encourages people to share what matters at their own pace. Conversations look at how past relationships shape current feelings and behaviours, and at practical steps to ease distress day to day. Reanne combines Attachment-Based ideas with Client-Centred listening and Cognitive Behavioural techniques where helpful.
She aims to help people make small changes that add up over time. That might mean noticing unhelpful thoughts, trying different ways to respond, or rebuilding a sense of safety after trauma. Reanne works alongside each person to set realistic goals and review progress.
People who want straightforward, empathetic support around grief, identity and trauma find a steady presence in her approach. Those with complex or overlapping concerns such as chronic illness, caregiving strain, or issues around intimacy and control can also explore these topics in therapy.
How relational and practical approaches work online
Reanne uses Attachment-Based ideas and Client-Centred listening to build trust and understand relationship patterns. Attachment work looks at how early bonds shape feelings now and helps people notice repeating patterns in relationships.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes. CBT techniques can be useful for anxiety, low mood and managing stress as part of a broader relational approach.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Reanne will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Online therapy can help fit counselling around everyday life, for example by reducing travel time and making scheduling easier. Different session ways may suit different needs, so check the current session options before booking. Many people find it helpful to balance reflective conversation with short practical exercises between sessions to build new habits.
