Blandine Cummins, BACP

Blandine Cummins is a counsellor who brings a thoughtful, person-centered style to her work, combining a Level 4 CPCAB counselling qualification with BACP recognition to support people through life’s challenges. She offers sessions in English and French and provides both online appointments and face-to-face meetings from her base in Jersey. Blandine fosters an open, non-judgemental atmosphere where clients can explore feelings and make choices that feel authentic to them.

Her interest in how people experience the world began early, expressed through music and writing and later deepened by studies in psychology and counselling. That background informs a practice focused on listening closely and helping clients increase self-awareness, self-acceptance, and emotional clarity. Blandine aims to empower individuals to take steps toward greater wellbeing rather than handing out ready-made solutions.

She works with a wide range of concerns including loss and bereavement, relationship and divorce issues, self-esteem, depression, loneliness, anxiety, stress, and challenges related to work or study. Blandine is flexible in offering both short-term and open-ended therapy, adapting sessions to each person’s needs so they can explore new perspectives and make meaningful changes in their lives.

Throughout her practice Blandine emphasises empathetic understanding and authentic connection, guiding people toward stronger relationships with others and with themselves as they move through difficult transitions.

Client-Centered Support and Flexible Online Sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathetic environment where the client’s own goals guide the work. The therapist listens deeply and reflects understanding, helping people explore feelings, values, and choices so they can develop greater self-awareness and confidence. This approach is well suited to issues such as self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief, and navigating life changes.

Alongside this core approach Blandine emphasises emotionally attuned listening and practical collaboration. She works with clients to identify what matters most to them and adjusts pace and focus accordingly, whether the aim is short-term relief or longer-term personal growth. Deciding on the right approach is part of the process and Blandine partners with each person to find the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or those living far from traditional services. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access registered professionals from different locations, allowing therapy to fit more naturally into everyday life.
