About Rob
Rob Millist is a counsellor with seven years of experience offering online sessions in the United Kingdom. He combines practical coaching with counselling to help people build confidence and manage everyday stresses. Rob meets people through video, phone, chat and text, and keeps sessions focused and straightforward.
He uses a mix of talking, grounding techniques and regular check-ins to track progress. Rob has worked in one-to-one and corporate settings and has volunteered as a counsellor for Youthline UK, Mind and PAWS.
Background and approach
He uses a simple head-and-heart approach that aims to make people feel welcome and understood. Early sessions include a slightly longer first meeting to review current concerns and set goals, and to introduce a monthly wellbeing score he uses to track change. His approach draws on attachment-based, client-centred and cognitive behavioural ideas alongside mindfulness and psychodynamic themes.
That means sessions can focus on current patterns, practical strategies and understanding underlying feelings. Rob adapts what he does to what each person needs rather than following a rigid plan. People come to him for many concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, addictions, sleep or eating problems, and life changes.
He also supports those dealing with autism, attachment wounds, BDSM or kink topics, chronic illness, and career or self-esteem struggles. Sessions are offered in English and take place remotely by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Rob uses a collaborative style and encourages people to set the pace, bring their own goals and review progress over time.

Online support
Cognitive behavioural elements are used to identify unhelpful thinking and try practical alternatives, which can be useful for stress, anxiety and low mood. These different methods are offered flexibly and Rob will work together with each person to decide which mix feels most helpful based on their goals and situation.
Online therapy here is available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a lunch break or use less bandwidth, chat and text are useful for shorter check-ins or ongoing messaging between sessions. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit around work, family and day-to-day life while keeping the focus on practical change and personal insight.
