About Reanne

Reanne Farrer is a counsellor who works from a client-centred and attachment-informed perspective. She holds a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, bringing six years of professional experience to her practice. Reanne aims to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief and issues linked to gender identity and sexual trauma.

She uses straightforward conversations to help people feel heard and understood. Sessions focus on what matters most to each person, whether that is managing anxiety, processing bereavement or exploring relationship patterns. Reanne also supports people dealing with codependency, body image concerns and communication difficulties.

Her background includes a Level 4 Diploma in Integrative Counselling and additional certificates in youth mental health first aid, safeguarding, and pet bereavement support. These inform how she tailors sessions to practical needs and emotional safety. Reanne blends ideas from attachment work and psychodynamic thinking to understand how past relationships shape present feelings.

In sessions she draws on client-centred listening alongside cognitive behavioural strategies when helpful. That means noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying small, manageable changes between meetings. People often come with trauma, grief or questions about identity, and the focus is on steady, collaborative progress.

Reanne practises in the United Kingdom and speaks English. She does not take international clients. To begin, clients use the site Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to the therapist's availability.

How Reanne’s approaches work online and in conversation

Reanne draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current feelings and expectations. This approach can be helpful for people struggling with connection, abandonment concerns or recurring relationship patterns.

She also uses client-centred methods that prioritise listening and the person’s own pace. This means sessions focus on what the individual wants to explore, and the counsellor follows their lead to build understanding and trust.

When small, practical changes are useful, Reanne brings in cognitive behavioural ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and try manageable experiments between sessions. That can suit clients working on anxiety, worry or changing daily habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Reanne will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative process can change over time as needs shift.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work makes it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduces travel time and lets them keep appointments around work or caring responsibilities. It also allows sessions to focus on conversations and practical steps that can be used between meetings.
