About Donna

Donna Deadman, LPC, focuses on helping people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and the everyday strains of parenting and relationships. She speaks plainly and works alongside clients to find practical ways forward. Donna aims to create a calm setting where people can say what they need to say and try new ways of handling strong feelings.

Donna uses a mix of therapy methods that fit each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns that fuel anger and anxiety and to test new behaviors. Emotionally-Focused and Attachment-Based ideas guide work on closeness and trust in relationships.

Her professional credential is Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and she has six years of experience in the field. She practices from Texas and offers services in English. Donna has worked with a wide range of concerns including depression, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, ADHD, career stress, and family conflict.

Sessions emphasize collaboration and practical steps. People can expect to leave with small experiments to try between meetings, clearer limits, and ways to calm intense moments. Donna encourages people to bring what’s real for them and to set the pace for change.

How Donna’s approaches shape online work

Donna often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and to identify values that guide small, useful actions. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and test practical behavior changes that reduce anger and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Donna treats therapy as a collaboration and will help you pick methods that match your goals, what feels doable, and your personal style. She adjusts tools over time based on what is helping.

Because the original biography does not list session formats, confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing meetings during evenings or weekends. It also lets people try brief check-ins or longer sessions depending on what fits their schedule and energy. Many people find it helpful to practice skills between meetings and bring real-life situations from daily routines into sessions for immediate feedback.
