About Donna
Donna Tibby is a BACP counsellor who offers integrative therapy for adults aged 18 and above. She greets clients with a warm, compassionate approach and aims to help people make sense of difficult feelings. Her practice is intended for those who want either short-term solution-focused work or a longer therapeutic relationship.
Donna listens for what matters most to each person rather than applying a single label. She often helps people who feel stuck by looking at patterns, thoughts, and beliefs that shape daily life. She encourages clients to question self-descriptions that feel limiting, such as identifying permanently as an anxious person.
Her approach blends several therapeutic methods to build a tailored plan. That flexibility means sessions can include practical skills, reflective discussion, or emotionally focused work depending on the issue. She aims to help people gain clearer self-awareness and manageable changes in how they cope.
Donna lists Adoption and foster care among her additional focus areas and also works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and ADHD. She follows the ethical framework of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and holds an Enhanced DBS check.
Sessions are offered across the United Kingdom. Prospective clients are encouraged to review session options and booking steps before arranging a first appointment.
How Donna uses therapeutic approaches online
Donna commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns formed in close relationships and can help people understand how past connections shape present reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That shared planning means sessions change if something feels unhelpful or a different focus is needed.
The practical benefits of remote therapy should be checked before booking because session formats are not specified in the biography. Confirm current options when you arrange a meeting. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, reduce travel time, and allow more flexible scheduling for people juggling other responsibilities. They also allow shorter check-ins when a brief update is needed rather than a full in-person appointment.
