About Mignon

Mignon Johnson is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 10 years of experience. She works with people who bring stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief and a wide range of other life challenges. She also lists blended family issues among her areas of focus. Sessions are aimed at adults seeking practical ways to cope and make changes.

Her practice draws on integrative, person-centred ideas alongside cognitive and emotion-focused methods. She uses attachment-based thinking to understand how past relationships affect present difficulties. Work in sessions can include talking through current problems, noticing patterns, practising new ways of responding and setting small goals between meetings.

Mignon’s training includes an advanced diploma in integrative counselling and ongoing professional development. She describes her approach as client-led and attentive to emotional, mental and relational factors. She pays attention to how values and life meaning shape choices about relationships and parenting.

In practical terms, she helps people manage immediate stress and build skills for longer-term change. That might look like supporting someone to set boundaries, work on communication, respond to grief, or find steadier routines in a blended household. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on what the client wants to work on.

Her work is informed by both professional training and lived experience. She draws on a range of therapeutic ideas and adapts them to each person’s goals. People can expect a collaborative, down-to-earth way of exploring problems and testing new approaches.

How her approaches translate to online work

Mignon uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) ideas to help people notice their values and take small practical steps that align with those values. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety and for making changes that matter over time.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. This can help when trust, closeness or loyalty questions come up in stepfamily or blended household situations. Attachment work often involves looking at patterns and practising different ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that suit the person’s needs. Clients and the therapist review what is working and adjust the plan together.

The original profile did not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to continue work with a therapist while living outside the immediate area, including international arrangements.
