About Donna
She combines several therapeutic approaches to build a personalised plan for each person. That might mean short-term, goal-focused work or longer-term exploration. Donna aims to help people change unhelpful beliefs, slow racing thoughts, and find new ways to cope with pain or loss.
Sessions use straightforward language and a calm style. Donna describes her work as empathic and practical, encouraging clients to try ideas between sessions and reflect on what helps. She has experience supporting people with relationship concerns, grief, trauma, addictions, sleep and eating difficulties, and anger.
Donna holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She follows the BACP ethical framework and maintains an Enhanced DBS check. Her practice operates in the United Kingdom and sessions are conducted in English.

How Donna’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and unhelpful coping patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and aims to test and change unhelpful patterns through practical exercises and experiments between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding emotions and how they shape close connections, useful for relationship stress and intimacy-related concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Donna discusses goals and preferences together with the client and adapts methods over time. That collaborative process helps settle on techniques that feel useful and realistic for everyday life.
The profile does not list specific online formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, avoid travel time, or have shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to work from a familiar environment and to try practical exercises between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals, including the therapist named here, can explain how a chosen approach will be used online and help tailor sessions to individual needs.
