About Donna

Donna Tibby is a counsellor who offers both short-term and longer-term work for adults. She follows professional practice under the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she brings three years of experience to sessions. Donna takes a compassionate, empathetic approach.

She listens without judgement and focuses on what is happening for each person now. Many people come with anxiety, low mood, grief or relationship strain, and she helps them make sense of those feelings in everyday terms.

Background and approach

Her work mixes several methods so the plan fits the person. That can mean practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking, talking about how early attachments shape current relationships, and helping people commit to values-driven action. Sessions aim to increase self-awareness and build manageable steps forward.

Donna also supports people facing issues such as addiction, a history of trauma and abuse, eating or sleeping problems, parenting stress, or job-related pressures. She pays attention to patterns like codependency, attachment difficulties and chronic health challenges when these affect daily life. Appointments are offered across the United Kingdom by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.

The practice follows the BACP ethical framework and Donna holds an Enhanced DBS check for her work with adults.

Therapeutic approaches online and how they help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values, which can reduce avoidance and increase purpose. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain anxiety, low mood or sleep problems, using practical exercises and small experiments. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy issues, trust and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then shape a plan together. That collaborative process means methods can be mixed and adjusted as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit around life. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversation, phone can be a good shorter check-in, and messaging or chat suits people who prefer written exchanges or need flexible timings. These options aim to increase access and make it easier to keep continuity of care.
