About Blayne
Blayne Wherrett is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has eight years' experience. He works with adults who are carrying stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem, depression and family issues. He also offers support around life changes and the specific burden of guilt and shame.
Blayne works in a person‑centred way. He listens, reflects and helps people find their own answers rather than prescribing solutions. Sessions focus on talking through what matters, noticing patterns in feelings and behaviour, and testing out different ways of responding day to day.
He uses practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy alongside client‑centred listening. That means looking at unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and trying small experiments to see what shifts. Blayne also draws on existential ideas about meaning and personal values to help with midlife questions, life purpose and major changes.
People bring a mix of concerns, from family conflict and communication problems to caregiver stress, loneliness or struggles with forgiveness. Blayne describes the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative puzzle where different pieces are turned over to see how past and present fit together. That approach helps people make clearer choices about what to change and how to cope.
Sessions are presented as a chance to reflect without judgment and to practise new ways of thinking and acting. Practical resources and short exercises are offered between meetings to support progress. To begin, clients follow the site's matching questionnaire and book a first session.
How his client‑centred and CBT approaches work online
Blayne combines client‑centred therapy with cognitive behavioural ideas and some existential thinking. Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can find their own solutions; it suits people who need space to talk and make sense of feelings. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses small practical exercises to test different ways of responding. Existential ideas help when people are wrestling with life purpose, meaning or major transitions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Blayne treats this as a joint decision - he will discuss goals, try methods and adjust based on what helps most. The process is collaborative and paced to the person’s needs and preferences.
The profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around busy lives, allow shorter check‑ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also mean opting for audio‑based time when bandwidth is limited or choosing a session length that fits a lunch break or school run. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods so the work remains practical and focused even when done remotely.
