About Donna
NCPS; 5 years' experience. Donna Robbie is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. She describes her practice as integrative and grounded in person-centred counselling, with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) informing her work.
Donna says she offers a neuro-affirming approach and has experience supporting autistic and AuDHD adults. She aims to help people build self-understanding and to develop practical coping strategies they can use day to day. Sessions focus on concrete skills as well as talking through feelings and patterns.
Her stated style is collaborative and adaptive. Donna uses person-centred methods alongside CBT and compassion-focused ideas to shape sessions around each person's needs. She works on communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation and questions of life purpose alongside her main areas of concern.
In practice she breaks concerns into manageable steps and helps set achievable goals. That can mean learning new ways to manage anxiety, addressing addictive behaviours, or working through low self-worth. She also supports people facing major life changes and transitions.
Sessions are intended to combine understanding with practical exercises. Donna says she offers a supportive therapeutic relationship while helping clients try out different coping techniques. People can expect short-term work for a specific issue or longer-term counselling for ongoing concerns.
How CBT and person-centred work online
Donna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test different ways of responding. CBT is practical and problem-focused, often involving simple exercises and experiments between sessions to reduce anxiety, low mood and addictive patterns.She also draws on person-centred counselling, which emphasises listening and reflecting to help people understand their own experiences. That approach supports longer conversations about identity, shame and life purpose while still allowing time for practical planning.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Donna works collaboratively to agree what to try first, and she adjusts methods based on a person’s goals and preferences. That means sessions can prioritise skills practice, exploratory talking or a mix of both depending on need.
