About Donna
Donna works in a straightforward, steady way. She listens to each person's story and helps them spot patterns that get in the way. Conversations often include simple awareness practices and body-based exercises to calm the nervous system. Sessions are aimed at practical change rather than jargon.
People contact Donna about many issues, including addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, eating or sleeping difficulties, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with parenting pressures, career uncertainty, and life changes such as bereavement. Narcissism is one of the focus areas listed for those wanting help to understand difficult relationships.
Donna uses mindfulness and somatic approaches to help people reconnect with their bodies and thoughts. She draws on those methods to reduce tension, manage intense emotions, and create steadier routines. Her style is calm, curious and down to earth.
Sessions follow a pace set by the person coming to therapy. Clients are invited to set goals and try small changes between meetings. Donna aims to make therapy a practical part of everyday life rather than an added burden.

How mindfulness and somatic work translate online
Donna uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce stress and quiet racing thoughts. These techniques are explained in plain language and practised during sessions so people can use them between meetings to lower anxiety and improve focus.She also draws on somatic therapy, which focuses on bodily sensations and movement. This helps people notice where tension sits in the body and try small, gentle exercises to ease stuck patterns. Somatic work can help with trauma, overwhelm and persistent stress responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Donna views therapy as a collaboration and will help decide which methods suit the person's needs, goals and preferences. Changes are tested gently and adjusted as progress unfolds.
