About Donna
Donna Davis is a licensed professional counselor with 30 years of experience helping people navigate hard moments. She focuses on relationship and parenting concerns as well as stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. Her work also includes support for mood conditions, ADHD, addictions, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Her approach centers on listening first and then building a plan that fits the person in front of her. Sessions are warm and practical.
Background and approach
She aims to make conversations feel manageable and useful rather than overwhelming. Donna draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds affect current relationships. She also uses client-centered methods that keep the person's goals in focus and cognitive behavioral tools to address thoughts and behaviors that get in the way.
In couples-related work she integrates emotionally focused and Gottman-based strategies to improve communication and rebuild connection. For parents she focuses on clear parenting goals, realistic steps, and ways to reduce household stress. People often come with a mix of concerns, and she tailors sessions to what matters most now.
The pace and techniques change with each person's needs. Her aim is to help people leave sessions with something they can try between appointments.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Attachment-based work looks at how early connections shape current relationships and patterns. Online sessions use conversations to notice those patterns and try small changes that can affect how someone relates to partners or children. Client-centered therapy focuses on following the client's lead and building understanding through empathic listening and reflection; that same stance guides virtual sessions so goals come from what matters most to the client. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and gives practical exercises to try between appointments, making it a good fit for phone, video, or text check-ins.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and personal preferences and then suggest a path to try. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps and what feels doable.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls let people read facial cues and body language, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can serve as a shorter check-in, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep momentum between appointments.
