Donna Robbie
Calm, practical therapy for everyday struggles
About Donna
Donna Robbie brings five years of counselling experience to her practice in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS and focuses on helping adults manage stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem and depression. Donna aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for people feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
Her approach is person-centred and informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Sessions typically involve looking at thoughts and behaviours, and trying simple tools to change unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
She uses compassion-focused ideas to help with shame, guilt and self-criticism. Donna pays attention to how life circumstances affect day-to-day functioning. She works with people facing big changes, isolation or impulsive patterns that cause problems.
Conversations concentrate on what is actually getting in the way and what can be tried next. Clients can expect a collaborative tone in sessions. Donna listens, then offers straightforward strategies and experiments to practice between meetings.
Over time the aim is to build clearer routines, better communication skills and more reliable coping tools. Her background blends practical therapy methods with an emphasis on understanding how identity and neurodiversity shape experience. That outlook informs how she adapts materials, pacing and expectations so therapy fits the person.
Donna strives to make progress feel manageable and relevant.

Sessions & fees
CBT-based support offered online
Donna uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT sessions focus on practical steps such as testing beliefs, changing small routines and building new coping habits; this is often useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.She also draws on compassion-focused ideas to reduce harsh self-criticism and soothe feelings of guilt and shame. That approach teaches simple exercises to develop a kinder inner voice and steadier emotional responses.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. Donna works collaboratively to choose methods that match each person's goals and preferences, and adjusts pace and tools as therapy progresses. Clients decide together which techniques feel most helpful.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging lets people write when it fits their day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting appointments around work, family and daily routines.
