About Reanne

Reanne Farrer is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach alongside attachment and cognitive behavioural ideas. She aims to make talking about painful or confusing experiences easier. Reanne helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and trauma, and she also supports those navigating gender identity and LGBT concerns.

She has six years of professional experience and holds a BACP credential. Her background includes a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling, a Level 4 Diploma in Integrative Counselling, youth Mental Health First Aid training, safeguarding training, and a Level 3 qualification in pet bereavement counselling. These qualifications inform her day-to-day work but do not define every helping style she uses.

In sessions she works to build an open space where clients can speak without fear of judgement. Conversations focus on what matters now and on learning ways to manage strong feelings. Practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy are used when helpful, alongside exploring how past attachments affect current relationships.

Reanne works with a broad range of concerns including sexual abuse and trauma, bereavement including pets, chronic illness and caregiver stress, body image and relationship difficulties. She also supports people with autistic traits and those involved in kink and alternative sex culture, always respecting individual needs and experiences.

She practices in the United Kingdom and conducts work in English. To begin, clients follow the site process to match with a counsellor and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How key approaches guide online counselling

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand trust, closeness and repeated reactions in relationships. Client-centred counselling centres the person and their experience, offering space to be heard and to make sense of feelings without pressure. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs and goals and then try methods that fit. That means sessions can shift over time as priorities change, and the client helps decide what feels most useful.

Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into everyday life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a busy day and help people access support from different parts of the UK. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals on the site will outline practical details so clients can pick arrangements that suit their schedules and needs.
