About Rob
Rob Millist is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years of practice. He holds BACP and NCPS credentials and offers weekday sessions mainly on Tuesdays, with some Thursday afternoon availability in summer. Sessions are usually 45 minutes, with a first session of 50 minutes to cover your concerns and a monthly Wellbeing Score.
He also reviews messages and voice notes during the week to keep in touch between sessions.
Background and approach
Rob brings experience from both one-to-one and corporate settings. He has worked with charities including Youthline UK, Mind and PAWS. That mix of roles means he is used to helping people under different kinds of pressure, from workplace stress to personal crises.
His style combines practical techniques with an empathetic, calm presence. He uses grounding exercises to help manage strong emotions. He pays attention to how attachment patterns and early experiences shape current worries, while also using problem-solving tools to tackle day-to-day difficulties.
Rob works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, grief, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD and career questions. He also lists additional focus areas such as attachment issues, body image, chronic illness, and communication problems. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a session according to therapist availability.
Approaches that guide online therapy
Rob draws on attachment-based work and cognitive behavioural techniques to shape online sessions. Attachment-based approaches look at how early relationships influence current patterns and help people recognise and change how they relate to others and to themselves. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and specific phobias.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rob treats the choice of methods as a collaborative decision based on your goals and preferences. He will discuss what seems most helpful and adapt the plan as progress is made so the work stays relevant to your needs.
Online therapy offers ways to fit counselling into a busy life. Video calls let you work face to face without travel. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to have shorter check-ins, send updates between sessions, or fit therapy around work and family commitments.
