Are you questioning your identity, recovering from trauma, or longing for a sense of belonging and connection?
I offer a warm, grounded, and relational space to explore whatever you’re facing. My integrative, trauma-informed approach supports healing, growth, and self-understanding. Together, we can gently explore old patterns and open space for new ways of relating, feeling, and being.

I often work with clients who may be struggling with distress, overwhelm and trauma related to their work, relationships, and racial identity.
If you’re exhausted, hurting, confused, or stressed – you’re in the right place. Welcome to your safe space – a space where you don’t have to convince anyone of your significance – it’s already known. A space where you don’t have to hide your weaknesses or downplay your strengths. A space where you can soothe your soul and pursue your purpose, whichever you need in the moment. A space where you can just be. I am here and honoured to help you design blueprints for an emotionally wealthy life; a life of sustainably pursuing the purpose, peace and pleasure you desire; a life where you can thrive from the inside out.

Loneliness isn't always about being alone. Sometimes it's having people in your life but not feeling connected to them. Sometimes it's feeling that nobody really understands what your experience is like. Sometimes it's not having many people to turn to at all. Over time, loneliness can become more than a feeling. It can become a way of moving through the world. You stop expecting to be understood. You carry things by yourself. You begin to wonder whether connection is something other people seem to find more easily.

Reaching out can be difficult. Maybe you feel stuck, anxious, unsettled, lost your way, or uncomfortable with whom you have become. The difficulties within our lives can change who we are or how we see the world. It can lead to thoughts or behaviours that take us away from who we are, resulting in a feeling of something not being right, struggling to cope or to make sense of things. When entering therapy, our life experiences enter too, and healing occurs within the processing. We will work together to build trust and explore your emotions and thoughts within a non-judgemental and safe environment, working at your own pace.

Many people come to therapy when stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, or long-standing emotional patterns begin to feel difficult to manage alone. I offer online therapy for adults across the UK, providing a confidential and structured space to explore what feels stuck, overwhelming, or unresolved. You may be self-aware and thoughtful, yet notice that insight has not led to the clarity or change you want.

I hope that I can help you with whatever it is that you are struggling with, be it anxiety, depression, grief, loss, trauma, identity, stress - the list goes on.
I offer a holistic approach to therapy. It could be changing thought patterns to help ease emotional pain (the top down approach). Or having coping strategies for certain situations. Perhaps looking at body stress to help ease thoughts and behaviours (the bottom up approach). It could be developing awareness to your defences. We find what works for you.

Hello my name is Donna. The decision to see a counsellor can be very frightening, but if you are reading this, then you have made a very brave step with your own self care. There are times in our lives, especially in current times when we are instructed to self Isolate, when it is even more important to have someone to talk too. I will make every attempt to provide you with a safe and comfortable space in which to explore whatever may be concerning you. My main aim is provide a safe, non- judgemental space where we can build an open & honest relationship.
