About Donna
Donna Rowley is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 15 years of experience. She supports people through stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. Donna aims to offer calm, steady support while people work through difficult moments in life.
Her style is collaborative and practical. She listens first to understand what matters most to each person. Then she helps set clear, realistic goals and checks in on progress as therapy continues.
Background and approach
Donna draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape work that fits the individual. Sessions focus on problem solving, building coping skills and making small changes that add up over time. She keeps language straightforward and avoids jargon so conversations stay clear and useful.
People bring very different histories into therapy, and Donna pays attention to those individual backgrounds. She also helps with specific concerns such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, relationship and communication problems, and issues linked to addiction or domestic violence. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Costs vary with location and therapist availability, and sessions use a subscription that clients can cancel at any time. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Online support
Another useful approach concentrates on understanding past experiences that affect present feelings and relationships. Sessions look at patterns such as attachment or abandonment issues, helping people recognise and change unhelpful responses to stress and loss.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and agree a plan that fits the person's needs, goals and preferences. That collaboration helps tailor techniques and the pace of therapy so it feels manageable.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are good for a fuller face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging allows ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and daily life while keeping the focus on progress.
