About Donna

Donna Rowley is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of practical experience. She offers calm, steady support for people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, loss, and depression. Donna works in a respectful, compassionate manner and aims to make conversations feel manageable and clear.

Her style is collaborative and down to earth. She listens first, then works with each person to set goals that feel relevant and realistic.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on practical steps and talking through difficult emotions at a pace that suits the individual. Donna also addresses issues connected to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, and caregiver stress. She helps people who struggle with body image, chronic pain or illness, commitment and control issues, dissociation, and the emotional fallout of separation or domestic violence.

People dealing with addiction, eating and food-related problems, or persistent emptiness can expect a straightforward approach that looks at behaviour, feelings and routine. Donna aims to make it easier to notice patterns and try different ways of coping. Her BACP credential is recorded as BACP, which indicates professional registration with that body.

Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that works for the client.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Donna lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Evidence-based techniques and online access

Donna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and managing strong emotions. One common approach is structured, goal-focused work that helps identify patterns of thinking and behaviour and then tests small changes in daily life to see what helps. This can be useful for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems.

Another key focus is trauma-informed care that pays attention to how past hurts affect everyday feelings and reactions. This involves building safety in sessions, pacing conversations, and finding practical ways to reduce flashbacks, dissociation or overwhelm over time.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to understand their goals, needs and preferences and then try techniques that fit. Adjustments are made as work progresses, so the plan can change if something isn’t helping.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are suited to longer, face-to-face style sessions, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for briefer check-ins or when writing feels more comfortable. These formats aim to make therapy more accessible around work, family or mobility constraints.
