About Donnah

Donnah Hewlett is a Registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She has six years of professional practice in the United Kingdom working with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, grief and coping with life changes. Donnah also offers support around addictions and intimacy-related issues and works with people across LGBT concerns and parenting challenges.

Her approach is practical and person-focused. She aims to make sessions a place for honest conversation without judgement. Donnah listens for the patterns that keep people stuck and helps identify small, doable steps forward.

She draws on several therapeutic methods depending on the matter at hand. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and change unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness techniques help with emotional pacing and grounding during stressful times. Client-Centred and Psychodynamic ideas guide deeper reflection about relationships and old patterns.

People often come to Donnah when they need help with life transitions such as becoming a parent, ending a relationship, or managing a new work role. Others seek support for compulsive sexual behaviour, addiction to pornography, or related partner issues. She also addresses self-esteem, motivation and adjustment after loss.

Donnah works with adults and accepts international clients. Sessions are structured so practical goals are set and reviewed. If someone wants to start, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful space where the person leads the conversation and the counsellor follows. It helps with building self-understanding, sorting values and gaining clarity about relationship choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It offers practical tools to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviours, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and motivation problems.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase tolerance of difficult emotions. These techniques often help when stress or compulsive behaviours feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Donnah will discuss options, try methods in-session, and adjust plans based on the client’s goals and preferences. The aim is a collaborative process that matches methods to the issue at hand.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around studying, shifts at work or moves between locations. Shorter check-ins and sessions that do not require video can help when quiet time is limited or bandwidth is a concern. Registered or accredited professionals can offer online appointments that let people continue therapy while balancing everyday commitments.
