About Blandine
Counsellor Blandine Cummins is a BACP member with four years' experience working with people in the United Kingdom. She offers sessions in English and French and focuses on relationship difficulties, parenting, self-esteem, career concerns, depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and coping with life changes.
Blandine uses a client-centred approach. She listens without judging and encourages people to find their own answers. Sessions are used to talk through feelings, look at patterns and consider practical steps that fit the person’s life.
She trained in psychology and counselling and brings a long-standing curiosity about how people see the world. That curiosity first showed through music and writing, and later informed her studies and early professional work. Her background shapes a reflective, person-focused way of working.
Blandine offers both short-term work and longer open-ended sessions, depending on what the person needs. She aims to be flexible so therapy can fit around work or family commitments. People often use sessions to make sense of confusion, to manage stress, or to rebuild after loss or change.
Sessions take place in English or French. Blandine accepts international clients and works from the United Kingdom. She asks people to choose the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to begin.
Client-centred work and online counselling
Client-centred therapy focuses on the person rather than the problem. The counsellor listens carefully, reflects back what she hears and gives space for people to make their own choices. This approach is useful for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship concerns and feeling stuck.Blandine also draws on her background in psychology to help people understand patterns of thought and feeling. That can help when dealing with grief, anxiety, stress or life changes. The aim is to build clarity about what matters and what practical next steps might look like.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Blandine will discuss how client-centred methods might fit a person’s needs and adjust the approach in collaboration with the client. Decisions about goals and session length are agreed together.
The original biography mentions online and face-to-face sessions, so please confirm the current session formats before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let someone choose English or French for sessions and connect with a counsellor based in the United Kingdom or elsewhere.
