Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Rob Millist draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support clients online. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns - it helps people understand attachment styles and improve emotional connection in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy prioritises the person’s own experience; the therapist offers empathy and nonjudgemental support to help clients explore goals and make choices that feel right for them. CBT is practical and solution-focused, helping people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and learn new skills to manage anxiety, low mood and everyday stresses.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Rob works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps ensure sessions stay focused and relevant.

Online therapy with Rob includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity between sessions and access support from home or other convenient locations.
