About Rob
Rob Millist is a counsellor with seven years of practical experience in the UK. He holds BACP and NCPS credentials and offers straightforward, supportive sessions designed to help people get unstuck. Rob aims to create a calm, welcoming space where clients can talk through worries and set realistic goals.
Rob works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. He also supports people with ADHD, grief, trauma, eating and sleeping problems, and issues related to identity and intimacy.
Background and approach
He brings experience from both one-to-one and corporate settings, and has worked with charities such as Youthline UK, Mind and PAWS. His style mixes practical tools and reflective conversation. Clients can expect grounding exercises, goal-setting and guided discussion about patterns that affect day-to-day life.
Sessions are paced to suit each person, and the first meeting is a little longer to map out priorities and a Wellbeing Score for tracking progress. Rob offers short written and voice message reviews between sessions to keep momentum outside scheduled appointments. He encourages people to set the pace and bring what feels most important to them.
The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Sessions are delivered in English and run through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Rob works across many common life difficulties and focuses on helping people build confidence, cope with change and find clearer ways forward.

How Rob's approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns from early relationships and how they show up now. It helps people understand closeness, trust and recurring relationship habits in everyday life. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the session, offering non-judgemental listening and reflection so clients can find their own solutions and build self-trust. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and introduces practical steps to change unhelpful patterns and manage anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rob will discuss which methods feel most useful for the individual's goals and adjust the way sessions run as those goals change. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client try options and pick what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different routines and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a short check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging suits ongoing, brief exchanges and people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or other commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
