Donna Tibby

Donna Tibby is a BACP counsellor who offers both short-term and longer-term work for adults aged 18 and over. She presents herself with a calm, compassionate manner and focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by life events or persistent low mood and anxiety. Donna aims to help people move away from unhelpful labels and into clearer self-understanding.

Her practice mixes practical approaches to suit each person. She draws on a few different therapies to build a tailored plan. Sessions are intended to help with everyday problems like stress, sleep difficulties, and relationship strain as well as deeper issues such as trauma, grief, addiction and attachment concerns.

Donna describes her style as empathic and solution-focused, while also making space for slower, exploratory work. She uses clear, simple language in sessions and encourages people to notice small changes that make a difference. The work often includes looking at thoughts, emotions and patterns that keep a difficulty going.

Her background includes three years of professional practice and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. She follows the BACP ethical framework and holds an enhanced DBS check. Donna works from the United Kingdom and offers her practice in English.

If you are unsure whether she is the right fit, the initial steps are straightforward: use the site's Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches in an online setting

Donna commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centred ways of working. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and sensations without getting stuck in them, and it helps people move toward values-based actions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in early relationships and helps people understand how those patterns affect current connections.

Client-centred methods place the person's own experience at the heart of sessions, with the counsellor offering empathy and careful listening so the client leads the pace and topic. These approaches can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, attachment worries and coping after loss or trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a way forward together. That means the chosen methods can change over time as progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking as this profile does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also be useful when quieter surroundings or being off-camera make a session easier to manage. Registered or accredited professionals can discuss practical arrangements and help match session style to day-to-day life.
