Finding the Right Support
Counselling and Workshop Services
Counselling
Sometimes we hit a bump in the road or want to address something much deeper.
You don't have to face things on your own, and giving time to yourself through one-to-one time is why counselling works so well for people.
Workshops
The Clarity, Balance and Growth workshops offer the beginning of a journey to support personal growth, strength and adaptability, like a spa for the mind! Research shows that there is a direct benefit of being with other people and feeling you are not alone.
So, why not join us on one of our workshops - you can book via EventBrite or contact fmr more information.

My Experience
Counselling Experience
As a counsellor, I have extensive experience working with clients exploring past childhood and adult experiences that continue to affect them today. My work at Devon Mind and through private practice has given me deep insights into supporting individuals through various challenges.
I believe in empowering clients with tools to help themselves. You are the expert on your life, and my approach focuses on collaborative exploration to understand your true feelings and desires. Our sessions are dedicated entirely to your growth and understanding.
I'm particularly passionate about helping people become 'unstuck' and develop pathways for personal growth. As a practitioner of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), I offer clients practical techniques they can use at home, extending the benefits of our sessions into their daily lives.
Workshop Experience
Throughout my career, I've created and delivered workshops through Devon Mind, schools, and university educational settings. My experience spans a wide range of topics including trauma, self-esteem, anxiety, assertiveness, visualization, and confidence building.
Creating thoughtful, personal development workshops is a real pleasure for me and over the years I have enjoyed watching the group support each other and this adds another therapeutic dimension.
As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I bring a trauma-informed approach to all my workshops. This certification has deepened my understanding of how to create safe, supportive environments for learning and growth.
What People Say
My counselling experience with Donna was amazing. I feel so much better and am grateful for the opportunity to work with her. Very much exceeded my expectations.
I was a little nervous to attend Donna's workshop, but I didn't need to worry. We were all made to feel really welcome, it was a friendly atmosphere, and I really gained some new things about myself.
