Step 3

Therapeutic approaches and finding the right fit online

Donna blends cognitive-behavioral ideas with humanistic perspectives and body-centered practices. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Humanistic methods emphasize listening, empathy, and helping people clarify personal values and life goals. Somatic-informed work brings attention to bodily signals and breathing to help manage stress and strong emotions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, concerns, and preferences, and then try methods that match what the client needs. Adjustments can be made over time so the work stays practical and relevant.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people continue care when life circumstances change, while the therapist and client work together to make sessions useful and manageable.
