How Donna pplies different approaches online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's experience and values. The therapist listens carefully and helps people find their own solutions, which can help with low self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and change unhelpful patterns.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used when past traumatic memories continue to cause strong reactions. It helps reduce the intensity of those memories so people can cope better day to day.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Donna will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. This is a shared process and can change as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you work face-to-face when you prefer visual contact. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit short conversations into a busy day and to keep momentum between longer sessions. These options aim to make regular therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
