Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Donna uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to clarify personal values that guide meaningful action. ACT is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and patterns that interfere with living in line with what matters most.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another mainstay of her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and learning practical skills to change reactions and behaviors. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and improving daily functioning.

Donna treats the choice of therapeutic approach as a collaborative process. She works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts techniques over time so the plan fits each person’s life and priorities.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in this work - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to connect from different locations. These options allow clients and therapists to focus on progress and skill-building in formats that feel most accessible and practical.
