Donna Rowley, BACP

Donna Rowley is a qualified professional based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of experience supporting people through a broad range of difficulties, including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, loss, and depression. She adopts a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate manner, working collaboratively to tailor care to each person’s unique needs and goals. Together with clients she builds a shared dialogue and develops a treatment plan that reflects their individual journey and aspirations.

Donna holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which is a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. Her practice also addresses related concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment difficulties, body image, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, commitment and control issues, dissociation, relationship separation, domestic violence, substance use, eating and food-related issues, and feelings of emptiness. Taking the first step toward change requires courage, and Donna provides steady, ongoing support for clients as they work toward more meaningful and manageable lives.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care

Donna draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on identifying and changing unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour - these methods can be especially helpful for managing stress, anxiety, low mood, and difficulties with addiction. She also uses trauma-informed, evidence-based work that supports processing painful experiences, addressing effects of abuse, and working through grief and loss.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Donna works collaboratively with clients to determine which techniques best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review progress and adapt the approach as required to ensure the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Donna is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited mobility. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and therapists from home or another convenient location, helping clients engage consistently with their care and maintain momentum between sessions.
