About Blayne
Blayne Wherrett is a counsellor who uses a person-centred way of working. He meets people where they are and aims to create a listening space without judgement. He explains things simply and helps people find their own answers rather than telling them what to do.
He draws on Client-Centred Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Existential Therapy to tackle practical problems. That means sessions can include reflecting on feelings, looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, and talking about life meaning and direction. The focus is on everyday steps that make a difference, such as trying a small change between sessions.
Blayne has eight years of professional experience in primary and private healthcare settings in the United Kingdom. He has worked with people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, family conflicts and life changes. He also supports men facing midlife questions, loneliness, and struggles around life purpose and self-worth.
In sessions he likens therapy to a puzzle. Together with the client he looks at different pieces - past and present - to understand how they affect daily feelings and behaviour. He uses questions and reflection to help people see new possibilities and move towards clearer goals.
Practical tools and resources are offered when helpful, and Blayne adapts the approach to each person. He checks messages Monday to Friday and aims to respond within 24 business hours. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability.
How his approaches fit into online therapy
Blayne blends Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and elements of Existential Therapy. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping people discover their own answers; it is useful for building trust and talking through confusing feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thinking patterns and practical experiments to shift mood and behaviour, which can help with anxiety and low mood. Existential Therapy opens discussion about life choices, meaning and direction when people feel stuck or questioning purpose.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Blayne treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss goals and preferences with each person. Together they decide which ideas to try first and adjust the approach as the work develops.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and the chance to meet without travel. Specific session formats are not listed here, so please confirm current options before booking.
