About Donna
My current counselling practice combines over 30 years of experience with specialized training and expertise in working with trauma. My primary modality of practice is the mind body approach of Self Regulation Therapy. A fight/flight response occurs in our nervous system during motor vehicle accidents, dental and medical procedures, falls, first responder duties, inescapable attacks, and relational trauma. As a result of this stored activation we may experience grief and loss, anxiety, depression, chronic headaches, physical discomfort and pain, addiction, and relationship difficulties. This approach will offer you great relief as you become more resilient, flexible and less symptomatic. I also have extensive experience doing couples therapy from perspectives of both the Satir Systems Theory, and the Relational Life therapeutic model.
