About Alanna
Alanna Farrow is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, low self-esteem and changes in work or life direction. Her profile also notes support for those affected by cancer and people concerned about addictions, anger and feelings of isolation.
Alanna uses straightforward, conversational sessions. She encourages clients to speak openly about how they feel and what is getting in the way of day-to-day life. Conversations focus on practical steps as well as understanding patterns that have developed over time.
Her work draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). That means sessions can include listening and reflecting on experience, alongside looking at thoughts and behaviours that sustain anxiety or low mood. The approaches can be used to address relationship and workplace issues as well as how people manage grief and life changes.
Alanna has particular experience supporting people affected by cancer and those dealing with end-of-life and hospice related concerns. She also lists work with attachment worries, body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, self-harm, and social anxiety.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. The site uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time; exact costs vary by location. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How Alanna uses CBT and Client-Centred work online
Alanna draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting so people can make sense of their feelings. This approach helps when someone needs to talk through loss, relationship strain or a shift in life direction.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and workplace stress by trying small, practical changes and reviewing what helps.
Choosing the right mix is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods suit their goals, preferences and the issues they bring. That process can include checking in and adjusting the approach as therapy continues.
If you want to use online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking. The main practical benefit of remote work is being able to fit conversations into a busy life - for example a quieter check-in during a lunch break, or avoiding travel time. Some formats also make it easier to use shorter sessions or to join when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt interventions used in person to an online setting so the work stays focused on daily coping and direction rather than being purely theoretical.
