About Reanne
Reanne Farrer is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people through trauma, bereavement and anxiety. She works in the United Kingdom and aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful. Reanne holds a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling and a Level 4 Diploma in Integrative Counselling, with six years of professional experience.
Her work often focuses on sexual abuse and trauma, gender identity, anxiety, and grief including pet bereavement. She listens without judgement and helps people name what matters most to them. Conversations are paced to match the client, whether they need practical coping skills or deeper reflection.
Reanne uses attachment-based and client-centred ways of working to build trust. She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and psychodynamic thinking when they suit a person's goals. This mix lets her tailor sessions to fit current problems and longer-term patterns.
Sessions often explore how past relationships shape present feelings and behaviour. Reanne helps people notice unhelpful cycles and try small, realistic changes. She also supports those facing chronic illness, caregiving stress, body image worries and relationship concerns.
Her additional training includes youth mental health first aid, safeguarding at Level 2, and pet bereavement support at Level 3. Reanne invites people to take things at their own pace and to use counselling as a space for honest, practical work and emotional repair.

How her approaches work in online counselling
Reanne often uses client-centred work, attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques in her counselling. Client-centred work means she follows the person's lead, listening and reflecting to help them clarify feelings and choices. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build different ways of relating. Cognitive behavioural methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical steps to shift feelings and behaviour.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person's situation. Sessions can change over time as needs evolve, with practical tools added when useful and deeper reflection when needed.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since they are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel or allowing shorter check-ins when time is limited. It also helps people keep continuity of care when facing relocation or health-related interruptions. Registered or accredited professionals can support therapy that is flexible and focused on everyday changes as well as longer-term emotional work.
