Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral techniques are used when clients want concrete tools to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Her background includes long-term clinical work and time supporting military service members and their families. The experience shaped a practical, down-to-earth style that values empathy and clear communication.
She also holds training and certifications related to grief and positive psychology. In sessions Donna focuses on what the person wants to change. She listens for family of origin influences, attachment patterns, and avoidant or codependent behaviors.
She helps with communication problems, commitment concerns, and managing emotions like anger, guilt, or shame. Sessions often mix talking, skill practice, and short exercises to try between meetings. The goal is to leave each session with one or two manageable steps.
Donna aims to make therapy understandable and useful for everyday life.

Online session options
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Donna uses Narrative Therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships and to try new, more helpful perspectives. Narrative work can be useful for issues like identity, family of origin patterns, and life changes.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationship patterns still affect current connections. This approach helps with attachment issues, trust, and communication problems. Client-Centered Therapy is part of her practice too, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals guide the work and the therapist reflects what matters most to the person.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Donna will work with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they set goals and try small experiments to see what helps.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people read facial cues and practice communication work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat and messaging can fit short check-ins or help between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and daily life.
