Reanne Farrer (She/Her), BACP

Reanne Farrer is a counsellor who focuses on thoughts and everyday habits to help people manage worry and stress. She draws on practical, conversational work to make sense of difficult experiences. Reanne aims to create a calm space where people can speak freely and begin to make small, steady changes.

She has six years of professional experience and holds a BACP credential, and she trained with a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling and a Level 4 Diploma in Integrative Counselling. Reanne has particular experience supporting people after sexual abuse and other trauma, and in matters around gender identity, anxiety and bereavement including pet loss.

Her sessions focus on listening first, then helping people notice unhelpful thought patterns and everyday habits that keep problems going. She uses ideas from attachment work and cognitive approaches to look at how relationships and thoughts shape feelings. The aim is to build small changes that make daily life feel more manageable.

Reanne also supports people with concerns such as body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress, autism and attachment issues, and relationship or communication problems. She works in a straightforward, non-judgemental way and encourages practical steps between sessions when useful.

People who choose to work with Reanne usually start by describing what is hardest right now. From there she helps set goals and check progress, adjusting the approach as needed. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, with a focus on real life and small, sustainable shifts.

How her approaches shape online counselling

Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships affect feelings and everyday reactions, helping people understand why certain situations trigger strong responses. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person's own pace and choices, making space for people to find what matters to them. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and habits, then test and change them with simple tasks and check-ins.

Finding the best mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape how sessions are run and what practical steps are set between meetings.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy around everyday life, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to use quieter surroundings or not be on camera if that helps them focus. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these approaches for remote sessions and tailor tasks to suit each person's circumstances.
