About Millie
Millie helps people who are facing anxiety, depression and stress. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, addiction and challenges linked to gender and sexual identity. Parenting, family dynamics and work-related strain are common topics she will explore with clients.
Her approach is straightforward and flexible. Sessions focus on what the person brings that day, and the topic often shifts as new issues emerge. Millie aims to offer respectful, non-judgemental listening and to adapt conversations and tasks to fit each person’s needs.
Millie also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which involves looking at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. This can be useful for changing patterns that maintain problems like low mood, anxiety or unhelpful habits. She combines this with a client-led stance so plans are shaped together.
Millie emphasises steady progress rather than quick fixes. She encourages honest reflection and practical steps between sessions when helpful. If it becomes clear another therapist would be a better fit, she supports people to consider that option so they can reach the best outcome.

How Millie blends client-centred work and CBT online
Millie uses client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural ideas in accessible ways. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following what you bring to a session so conversations reflect your priorities and pace. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link and introduces small practical changes to shift unhelpful patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Millie will discuss goals, try different ways of working and adapt methods to suit your needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process where you shape what happens and she offers tools and guidance that fit your aims.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to maintain continuity when travel or work gets in the way. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, depending on the options offered. If you want to know which session formats are currently available, please confirm the therapist's present session options before booking so you can choose what fits your everyday routine best.
