This flexible mix allows her to tailor treatment to the specific needs of individuals, partners, and whole families.

Donna holds certification as an Authentic Happiness Coach and is a Certified Grief Counselor, and she completed a year of study at the Couples’ Institute.

Donna honors the courage involved in seeking help and partners with clients to turn vulnerability into resilience and growth.

Therapeutic Approaches for Effective Online Care

Donna integrates Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns and to strengthen emotional bonds - an approach that can help with abandonment, attachment issues, relationship conflicts, and family-of-origin concerns. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to build practical skills for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is employed when working with couples to uncover and reshape emotional responses that drive conflict and disconnection, supporting improved communication and intimacy.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Donna works collaboratively with each person or couple to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and needs. She adapts techniques over time as insight and progress unfold, emphasizing partnership and client strengths.

Online therapy with Donna can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home or work, and choose the format that best supports each individual’s healing and growth.
