Reanne Farrer (She/Her), BACP

Reanne Farrer is a counsellor who combines talking therapies with practical support. She uses a warm, non-judgemental approach to help people facing anxiety, stress, grief and the impacts of sexual abuse and trauma. Reanne also offers support around gender identity and a wide range of related concerns, including ageing and geriatric issues.

She draws on six years of professional experience and holds a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling. Reanne uses familiar, everyday language in sessions so people can say what they mean without jargon. Sessions focus on building understanding, noticing patterns, and finding actions that make life steadier.

Reanne integrates client-centred listening with approaches that look at relationships and thinking patterns. That means conversations about early attachments, current relationships, and the thoughts that drive anxiety. Practical strategies from cognitive behavioural ideas are used alongside deeper exploration when it helps.

She has additional training in pet bereavement support and youth mental health first aid, and she has safeguarding qualifications. These wider skills inform how she supports people facing loss, long-term health challenges, and life changes linked to ageing.

People who work with Reanne can expect calm, direct conversations and a focus on what matters to them. She encourages small, manageable steps and checks in about progress. To begin, clients use the site process to match and book sessions according to the therapist's scheduling.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Reanne uses client-centred listening to build a stable, respectful relationship. This approach focuses on following the person’s concerns, reflecting what they say, and letting them lead the pace of sessions. It helps when people need space to make sense of feelings without pressure.

She also uses ideas from cognitive behavioural therapy, which break down how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. That approach supports practical steps such as noticing unhelpful thought patterns and trying small experiments to change reactions. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and some aspects of grief and trauma recovery.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and personal history and will suggest which methods to try. Clients and the counsellor collaborate on which tools to use and review what helps as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to continue conversations through life changes such as caring responsibilities or mobility challenges.
