About Donna
She has worked in counseling for 35 years and holds the LPCC credential. Over decades of varied settings she has seen many kinds of struggles and losses. That experience informs a direct yet flexible way of working that blends older and newer ideas.
Her approach is eclectic. She uses client-centered listening alongside psychodynamic, Jungian, narrative, and mindfulness ideas to help people understand patterns and try new ways of coping. Sessions may include reflective conversation, attention to meaning and symbols, and simple mindfulness practices.
Donna describes herself as spiritual rather than strictly religious and is open to discussing faith if it matters to a person’s healing. She also emphasizes brief, focused work when that fits, while remaining open to longer cycles on tougher issues.
Clients can expect a straightforward style that blends life experience with clinical perspective. She asks for readiness to change and a willingness to address harmful patterns. If someone wants to explore practical steps toward feeling better and restoring daily functioning, Donna offers an experienced, down-to-earth partner for that work.

Therapeutic approaches and working online
Client-centered therapy focuses on clear listening and responding to what a person says. It helps people feel heard and decide what changes matter most in daily life. Jungian therapy pays attention to symbols, dreams, and personal meaning to uncover patterns that shape behavior and relationships.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept up in them. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, sleep problems, and managing mood swings. These approaches are offered as part of an overall, flexible way of working that draws on a few traditions rather than a single method.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and together decide which ideas to try first. That shared planning helps tailor work to practical goals like improving sleep, reducing panic, or managing anger.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and making it easier to keep appointments without long travel. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current online options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions help them maintain steady progress while balancing work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
