About Alanna

Alanna Farrow is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and communication problems, and life changes. She also helps with addictions, anger, career and workplace issues, and feelings of isolation or low motivation. Alanna works in English and accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

She is listed with the BACP and has three years of professional experience. Alanna aims to make the first step feel manageable.

Background and approach

She creates a calm space where people can talk about difficult feelings without being judged. Sessions focus on what matters now and on small, practical steps forward. Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which puts the person’s own perspective at the centre of each session.

This means listening closely and responding to individual needs rather than following a fixed script. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which helps spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try out new ways of coping. Alanna has significant experience supporting people affected by cancer, including end-of-life and hospice-related issues.

She brings that experience to conversations about guilt, grief, body image and medical transitions. This background informs how she approaches sensitive or complex losses. Sessions can be short-term or open-ended depending on goals.

Alanna works collaboratively to set aims and review progress. She encourages practical exercises between sessions to build new habits and confidence.

How Alanna’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person speaking and their experience. The counsellor listens without judging, reflects what is said and helps people find their own solutions. This approach is helpful for building trust, exploring grief and working through relationship or self-esteem concerns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It uses practical exercises to test out new ways of thinking and coping. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, social phobia and workplace stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will work together with the client to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That might mean combining person-centred listening with CBT tasks, and adapting the pace to suit the individual.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls let people see facial expressions and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can fit into a lunch break or need less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging offer shorter check-ins or a way to reflect in writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, health needs and family life.
