How Donna’s Approaches Work Online

Donna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behavior patterns to reduce anxiety, depression, and anger. CBT often involves short-term, practical tasks between sessions to build new skills.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name emotions, then improve emotional connection and communication in important relationships. EFT can be useful for working through grief, attachment concerns, and intense feelings that get in the way of close relationships.

Picking the right approach is a collaborative process. Donna will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then shape the work together rather than imposing a single method.

In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and help people keep continuity of care across moves. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and EFT exercises to work in remote sessions while focusing on practical tools and communication skills.
