Additional focuses include attachment issues, adoption and foster care concerns, body image, and relationship dynamics related to commitment and codependency.
Donna draws on several therapeutic approaches to guide sessions. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Attachment-based ideas help when relationships and early bonds affect current behavior. Client-centered methods keep the conversation grounded in each person’s experience.

Client-centered therapy keeps the conversation built around the client's experience, with the therapist listening, reflecting, and following the client's lead.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Donna collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences.
