Faith Cummins , BACP

Faith Cummins is a counsellor who helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, low or stuck. She works with those facing loss, relationship tensions, job dissatisfaction, or unexplained low mood. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people find clearer ways forward.

Faith uses simple, practical conversations to help clients make sense of painful feelings. She listens without judgement and encourages people to notice patterns in their thoughts and behaviours. Sessions are intended to be calm and steady, with small steps that add up over time.

Her approach draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships shape current responses. She also uses client-centred ways of working to follow what matters most to each person. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used when helpful to spot unhelpful thinking and try more useful alternatives.

With four years of practice, Faith brings a thoughtful, reflective manner to sessions. She holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration listed in her profile. Her background supports work on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression among other concerns.

Faith also supports people with ADHD, addictions, eating and sleeping issues, grief, intimacy questions and career worries. Additional areas she attends to include attachment issues, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress. The focus is on helping each person discover practical coping strategies and clearer choices.

Sessions are offered in English and Faith accepts international clients. People interested in beginning work are guided to use the platform process to match and arrange their first session.

How specific approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work pays attention to how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions; online sessions can use this lens to track patterns in how someone connects, copes with loss or responds to stress. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following the person's priorities, offering space for clients to set the pace and choose the topics they want to address. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers clear tools to test and change unhelpful patterns, which can be practised between sessions and reviewed remotely.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. That means trying different techniques, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together rather than following a fixed route.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a longer session is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or the session needs to fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for regular check-ins, brief reflections or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel while keeping the focus on consistent progress.
