About Mignon

Mignon Johnson is a counsellor accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with ten years' practice in the United Kingdom. She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family matters, addiction, grief, parenting and ADHD. Sessions focus on the issues a person brings and on practical steps they can take between meetings.

Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside acceptance and commitment ideas and attachment-focused work. Mignon uses person-centred techniques to acknowledge feelings and build clearer emotional understanding. She also applies cognitive behavioural tools and other humanistic methods when these suit a person's goals.

Training-wise, her background includes a BACP-accredited Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling and ongoing professional development. She holds BACP accreditation and is a member of the National Counselling Society. Her practice reflects both formal study and longer-term clinical experience.

In sessions she pays attention to how past relationships affect present feelings and patterns. That can mean naming painful emotions, noticing recurring interaction styles, and experimenting with different ways of responding. Work sometimes includes values-based decisions and practical coping steps for everyday life.

People coming to see her can expect a collaborative way of working. Mignon aims to agree clear goals and to adjust methods according to what helps most. International clients are accepted and sessions are conducted in English.

How her approaches work for online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and work with strong emotions and the interaction patterns that follow. It is often used when relationship patterns or hard-to-name feelings are getting in the way of connection or emotional clarity. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and practical actions. It supports people who want to live according to what matters to them while managing difficult thoughts and feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how earlier relationships shape current responses and helps people notice and shift those patterns.

Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. That collaborative process means approaches can change as things move forward and as a client's needs become clearer.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also make it simpler to arrange appointments across time zones for international clients. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, emotion-focused conversations and values-based tasks to an online setting to keep the work practical and focused.
