Nathalie Donny

Nathalie Donny is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 18 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, grief, anger, or life transitions. She also supports those coping with trauma and relationship or intimacy concerns. Nathalie speaks English and French and draws on long experience to guide practical steps forward.

Her background includes work with trauma, including sexual and physical abuse, and with people facing parenting stress, career changes, and challenges related to ADHD and bipolar mood concerns. She has served as a supervisor for master’s level counselors pursuing licensure. Nathalie aims to give clear skills that clients can use in daily life.

In sessions she uses an integrative approach based on cognitive behavioral methods, mindfulness, and a client-centered stance. That means she helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, practices present-moment awareness, and centers each person’s goals and values. She avoids jargon and focuses on concrete tools people can try between sessions.

Her work is practical and skill-based. Clients can expect an emphasis on learning coping strategies, improving communication, and managing strong emotions like anger. The aim is to help people build more steady routines, greater self-understanding, and better confidence in everyday situations.

People considering therapy with Nathalie start by looking at short-term goals and then move at a pace that fits their needs. She describes therapy as a collaborative process and adapts methods to what helps each person make meaningful change.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters most and taking small committed steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, frustration, and decisions about relationships or work.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and test them with practical experiments. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger management, and changing daily habits that get in the way of goals.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches basic awareness skills to notice thoughts, body sensations, and emotions without getting swept away by them. Practicing these skills can reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nathalie collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and life demands. She adjusts the blend of ACT, CBT, and mindfulness based on what works in practice and what the client wants to prioritize.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the original biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, caregiving, and travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or let people choose not to use video if they prefer less bandwidth or a quieter setup. Ask about current session options when you schedule.
