About Mignon
Mignon Johnson is a BACP counsellor with ten years' experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief and parenting challenges. She uses a warm, person-centred style and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and practical for worried parents. Conversations focus on what matters now and on small steps that fit daily life.
She works from an integrative base that draws on attachment ideas and cognitive behavioural tools. That means she notices how relationships and past experiences shape feelings, while also looking at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going.
Background and approach
Sessions often combine gentle exploration with practical strategies to manage mood and relationships. Her background includes a BA Hons and an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling that was BACP accredited. She has continued professional development in areas such as bereavement, trauma-related work, pluralistic approaches and outdoor therapy, which inform how she adapts each session.
Mignon describes therapy as a collaborative process. She listens for the client’s goals and tailors methods to meet those aims. This might include validating feelings, developing coping skills, or addressing attachment patterns that affect parenting and relationships.
People who come for help with parenting concerns often leave with clearer routines, calmer responses and better ways to talk about difficult topics. Mignon also supports individuals facing addiction, chronic illness, career strain and compassion fatigue. Her approach is pragmatic and relationship-focused, aiming to make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

How Mignon uses therapeutic approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then identify values and take small steps that matter. It can be useful for stress, anxiety and life changes where action matters more than perfect thinking.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current bonds and parenting. It helps people understand repeated cycles and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more connected.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences with the client and suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process that may combine attachment, ACT and person-centred elements to match what the client needs.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let visual cues guide conversations, phone sessions use less bandwidth for a quicker check-in, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit short updates or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare or other commitments while keeping the focus on steady, useful progress.
