About Bear

Bear Donna is a UK-credentialed therapist who holds the NCPS credential and brings three years of professional experience to his practice. He works with people across many areas including neurodiversity, LGBTQIA+ related concerns, trauma and abuse, eating disorders, depression, ADHD, anxiety and stress, addictions, relationship and family challenges, grief, intimacy and sleeping difficulties, parenting and career issues, and coping with major life changes. He also supports clients facing attachment and abandonment concerns, autistic spectrum issues, body image and self-esteem struggles, chronic illness or pain, and a range of personality and mood difficulties.

He aims to create a nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored openly, recognizing that reaching out for support is a courageous step toward a more fulfilling life. Trained as an Integrative and Transactional Analysis psychotherapeutic counsellor, he combines techniques from multiple therapeutic models and a deep knowledge of Transactional Analysis - an approach that examines how patterns of thinking and interaction shape emotional life. His NCPS credential indicates professional training in counselling and psychotherapy. Bear uses a range of therapeutic tools to tailor work to each person’s needs and collaborates with clients to set goals and find practical pathways to change.

Integrative and Transactional Analysis in Online Therapy

Bear Donna draws on Integrative therapy and Transactional Analysis to guide online work. Integrative therapy blends techniques from different therapeutic models to match interventions to each person's needs - this flexible approach can help with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and coping with life transitions. Transactional Analysis examines recurring patterns in thoughts, feelings, and interactions to help people understand how their past and present ways of relating influence current problems, which can be useful for attachment, communication, and self-esteem concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Bear works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. He partners with clients to set priorities, try techniques, and adjust the plan over time alongside licensed professionals and therapists where appropriate.

Online sessions via video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer practical flexibility, allowing clients to access consistent support from home or other convenient locations. This range of options helps people balance therapy with work, family, and other responsibilities while maintaining continuity of care and a steady path toward their goals.
