About Donna
Donna focuses on practical, conversational work. She listens to what matters most and helps people sort out immediate problems. That can mean looking at thoughts and behaviours that keep stress or anxiety going, or discussing how past experiences shape present relationships.
Her practice draws on a mix of approaches. Client-Centred Therapy steers sessions around the person in front of her, while Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thinking and behaviour. Attachment-Based and Psychodynamic ideas are used to consider how early relationships influence current patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set short-term goals and notice small changes.
People often come with overlapping concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image or caregiving stress. Donna will talk through what matters first and decide together what to focus on. The work can include talking, setting practical steps between sessions, and reviewing progress.
Her style is straightforward and calm. Practical next steps are agreed early on, and plans are reviewed regularly so therapy stays relevant to daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and working online
Donna uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep sessions focused on the person in front of her, helping them speak freely and decide what to explore. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small, practical behaviour changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds can influence current relationships and emotional responses.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Donna will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as those needs become clearer. The process is collaborative and reviewed as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping continuity when life is busy; Donna will discuss practical options and how sessions can fit day-to-day routines.
