About Blandine
Blandine Cummins is a BACP counsellor who offers approachable, calm support for people feeling overwhelmed by parenting pressures and life changes. She speaks English and French and provides sessions online across the United Kingdom and internationally. Blandine aims to create a welcoming space where parents and individuals can talk openly and begin to make small, practical changes.
She uses a Client-Centred Therapy style that focuses on listening and understanding. Blandine encourages people to name what matters to them and to find their own solutions.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to be conversational and reflective, with the counsellor offering gentle guidance rather than direct advice. Blandine trained in counselling and studied psychology before working in practice. Her background includes four years of professional experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns.
She also helps with grief, anger, and the strain that life transitions can bring. In sessions she pays attention to differences in how people see the world. That curiosity helps her invite new perspectives and greater self-awareness.
Blandine describes counselling as a chance to explore patterns of thinking and behaviour and to try different ways of responding to difficult situations. She offers both shorter-term and open-ended work, adapting the pace to what each person needs. People can expect a steady, empathetic presence in sessions and practical conversations about coping, confidence and communication.

Client-centred approaches for online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor provides a non-judgemental space and reflects what the person says so they can hear themselves more clearly. This approach is useful for issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strain and parenting stress because it helps people untangle their feelings and decide what matters to them.Working out the right approach is a shared process. Blandine will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then shape sessions around what seems most helpful. That collaborative stance means the way therapy looks can change over time, from shorter practical check-ins to deeper, open-ended conversations as needed.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation and allow visual cues, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and are useful for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or need to fit support into a busy day. These options make it easier to work around childcare, work breaks or different time zones, while keeping the focus on steady, consistent therapeutic work with a registered professional.
