About Donna
Donna Peters helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, anger and grief. She also focuses on issues linked to divorce and separation, guilt and shame, panic attacks, social anxiety and young adult concerns. Donna presents information plainly and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for anyone feeling overwhelmed.
Donna has around four years' direct counselling experience and a longer history of professional work in the NHS.
Background and approach
She has completed over 450 clinical hours working with clients in person, by phone and online. In addition, she volunteered for seven years at a bereavement charity supporting adults and young people through loss. Her practice draws on person-centred and integrative approaches, with techniques such as cognitive behavioural methods and solution-focused brief work used where helpful.
Sessions are built around the person in front of her, and practical tools are offered alongside time to talk. In appointments Donna listens with respect and sensitivity. She aims to help people unpack difficult feelings, build small practical steps, and regain a sense of control.
Her manner is calm and encouraging, with an emphasis on clarity and realistic goals. People who come to Donna can expect a straightforward process: a short matching questionnaire, then scheduling by availability. She works in English and practises within the United Kingdom.
Donna is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Focus areas and approaches
What Donna works with
Everything Donna lists, in their own terms.
Online support
She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and develop manageable behavioural changes. These methods are helpful for anxiety, panic and low mood because they offer clear steps to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Donna will work with each person to decide which techniques suit their goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy here can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break from work. Text and chat sessions suit people who prefer to write, want shorter check-ins, or find typing a helpful way to express themselves.
These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to try different ways of working while focusing on the issues that matter most.
