Welcome — I’m Donna, and I’m glad you’re here. You may feel deeply and care profoundly, yet find yourself exhausted, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next steps. You might be navigating a mood disorder, living with neurodiversity, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Perhaps life’s demands feel too heavy. You’re seeking more than survival — you want less worry, more energy, practical tools, and clarity to move forward with purpose.
With years of experience, I blend ongoing education and research to help you feel balanced, confident, and better able to guide yourself. Together, we’ll address emotion regulation, uncover the roots of your struggles, build healthy coping skills, and create a clear path forward to navigate life with strength and purpose.
I know how heavy life can feel when you’re carrying it alone. You deserve a space where you’re heard, understood, and supported without judgment. Together, we can turn perceived weaknesses into personal strengths. Take the first step today toward the life you want.
Take the first step to help. Call or Donna Cook now - (437) 494-9073

Shaped by personal challenges and growth, I've learned to practice self-compassion and build resilience daily. As Brené Brown says, "Only when we explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light." I carry this belief into my work.

I often use trauma-focused CBT, mindfulness, and emotional regulation to build self-compassion, confidence, and resilience. My client-centred, strength-based, evidence-based approach helps clients gain skills, coping tools, and knowledge needed to advocate for their needs. I honour each client's unique experiences and work collaboratively to support a positive, balanced life.
