Reanne Farrer is a counsellor who blends attachment work with cognitive and client-centred approaches. She holds BACP registration and has six years of professional experience offering conversational, practical support. Her style is straightforward and warm, aimed at people who feel nervous about starting therapy.
Reanne commonly helps with stress and anxiety, trauma and sexual abuse, grief including pet bereavement, LGBT concerns and relationship difficulties. She also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, chronic illness and caregiver strain.
Background and approach
The aim is to make difficult topics easier to talk about and to find manageable steps forward. Sessions are built around what the person wants to achieve. Reanne listens first, then works collaboratively to identify patterns and small changes that can ease day-to-day life.
She uses cognitive behavioural ideas when practical strategies are helpful and attachment-based thinking to look at how relationships shape feelings. People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space where emotions and memories are named and understood. Reanne pays attention to how past experiences affect current reactions and relationships.
She also draws on existential and psychodynamic perspectives when exploring meaning and long-standing patterns. Her background includes a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling and diplomas in integrative counselling. Reanne offers video, phone, live chat and text-based sessions across the United Kingdom.
If someone is unsure where to begin, she supports them in choosing the right way to start.
How attachment, client-centred and CBT work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can gently explore these patterns so people understand why they respond the way they do and practise new ways of relating.Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says. The aim is to offer acceptance and understanding so someone can find their own answers and move at a comfortable pace.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers simple tools and exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new coping strategies for anxiety or stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options and decide together which methods fit the person's goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and may change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people speak face to face from different locations, phone sessions suit those with less bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging can work for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties and daily life while still using attachment, client-centred and CBT techniques effectively.
