About Rob
Rob Millist is a counsellor with seven years' experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship strain and life changes. He holds BACP and NCPS credentials and has worked with organisations such as Youthline UK, Mind and PAWS. He uses a direct, warm style that aims to help people feel heard and build practical confidence.
Rob blends straightforward conversation with grounding techniques to manage strong emotions. Sessions begin with a longer first meeting to set goals and discuss a monthly Wellbeing Score, then move to regular shorter appointments. He offers a mix of counselling and coaching approaches suited to personal and work-related concerns.
His practice covers a wide range of issues including depression, bipolar, addictions, ADHD, eating and sleeping difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns. He also supports people working through attachment, abandonment and communication difficulties, plus body image and sexual diversity topics such as BDSM and kink.
Rob draws on approaches like attachment-based work, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural techniques. He aims to make therapy practical, helping people try small changes between sessions and notice what improves.
Sessions are presented with clarity about goals and progress, including the use of a Wellbeing Score to track changes over time. Prospective clients should use the Start Therapy flow to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.
Approaches that shape online work
Rob uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. This can help people who struggle with trust, abandonment feelings or repeating relationship issues.He also uses client-centred counselling, which focuses on listening and understanding your experience without judgement. That approach helps people feel accepted and explore what matters most to them.
Finally, cognitive behavioural techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small practical changes. CBT-style tasks can be useful for anxiety, low mood, stress and some eating or sleeping difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Rob works collaboratively to match methods to each person's goals and preferences, and adapts the plan if something does not feel right. He combines listening, practical exercises and progress checks such as a monthly Wellbeing Score to guide the work.
Confirm which session formats are being offered before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a working day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins or regular weekly slots that suit busy schedules.
