Mignon Johnson, BACP

Mignon Johnson is a BACP counsellor with ten years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions and questions about purpose and career. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, intimacy concerns, ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Mignon trained in an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling that was BACP accredited. She combines person-centred and attachment-focused ways of working with cognitive and emotionally-focused approaches. Her background includes continued professional development in bereavement work, pluralistic therapy, and other supplementary trainings that inform her practice.

Sessions tend to focus on what the client brings each week. Mignon uses practical conversations and reflective exercises to help people notice patterns, consider values and test new ways of relating. She talks through coping strategies and communication techniques alongside exploring emotional responses rooted in earlier relationships.

Her approach draws on attachment ideas to consider how early relationships affect current difficulties. Cognitive tools are used to spot unhelpful thinking and to try different responses. Emotion-focused practices are offered where stronger feelings need naming and mapping.

Mignon describes therapy as a collaborative process. She works with a client's goals and preferences, discussing options and adjusting methods as work progresses. People who are wondering what comes next after a change in work, relationships or health often come to discuss direction and practical next steps.
