More about Donna

  • 27 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCMHC

As a licensed therapist in North Carolina, I bring nearly three decades of compassionate counseling experience to supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My approach is deeply rooted in Christian principles, offering a spiritually-informed perspective while providing evidence-based therapeutic support.

I specialize in helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and significant life transitions. My practice focuses on empowering individuals to develop stronger self-esteem, improve communication skills, and overcome social barriers like isolation and social anxiety.

My therapeutic work centers on guiding clients through profound personal growth—addressing issues such as guilt, shame, life purpose, and healing from past traumas. I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where individuals can explore forgiveness, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and rediscover their inner strength.

Whether you're struggling with panic attacks, processing a difficult separation, or seeking to build more meaningful connections, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you with empathy, understanding, and hope.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
