About Faith

Faith Cummins is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She helps adults who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, grief, relationship strain or life changes. Faith works with concerns such as depression, ADHD, addictions, self-esteem and intimacy issues, and she supports people navigating parenting pressures, career uncertainty and caring responsibilities.

Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on talking through what is happening now, noticing patterns that cause repeated upset, and trying practical steps to change how people respond. She uses ideas from attachment work, client-centred dialogue and cognitive approaches to help clients make sense of difficult feelings and reactions.

Faith also draws on Jungian ideas about personal meaning and on motivational interviewing to help clarify goals and build momentum for change. This mix is used to help people understand where anger, avoidance or low mood have come from, and to find ways to manage them that fit daily life. She will work with an individual’s history and current stresses to identify small, realistic changes.

Sessions are conversational and aim to be straightforward rather than technical. The early meetings focus on what matters most to the client now and practical next steps. Faith asks clients to reflect between sessions and brings in exercises only when they feel useful and manageable.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work pays attention to how past relationships shape current reactions and may help with anger that is tied to fear of rejection or loss. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can find their own answers; this suits those who want a conversational, non-directive space to talk things through. Cognitive behavioural ideas look at specific thoughts and behaviours and offer practical experiments to change how emotions and reactions unfold.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences with the client and decide together which methods feel most helpful. That collaborative decision is reviewed as progress is made and problems change.

The biography does not specify which session formats are used online, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a working day, reduce travel time and allow for brief check-ins when needed. They also let people choose formats that match their energy and schedule, for example shorter conversations at lunch or a longer evening session to go into deeper issues.
