About Donna
Donna Daigle-Thomas is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with seven years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and depression. Her practice also addresses addictions, grief, bipolar concerns, and ADHD in straightforward, practical ways.
Donna uses clear, task-focused conversations to identify thoughts and habits that get in the way. She combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered methods to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions use simple exercises and real-life homework to test what works.
She also incorporates EMDR and mindfulness practices when trauma memories or strong emotions need different techniques. Those methods are used alongside talk-based strategies to reduce distress from past events and to build better coping skills. Donna explains each step and checks in about how methods feel for the person.
People who contact her often want practical fixes for communication problems, shame or guilt, first responder stress, and questions about life purpose. She also supports those dealing with relationship strain and challenges around self-love and self-harm thoughts by teaching skills to manage intense feelings.
Sessions focus on specific goals and measurable steps. Donna asks about daily routines, thinking patterns, and what gets in the way of change, then works with clients to create short experiments to try between sessions. This keeps work grounded and easy to apply in day-to-day life.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Donna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test alternatives with short, practical exercises that can be done between sessions. CBT focuses on changing thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to stress and anxiety.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which teaches noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. ACT is useful when someone wants to stop struggling with feelings and start taking small steps toward meaningful goals.
Client-centered methods mean the therapist listens and follows the client’s concerns while offering structured tools. Together the client and therapist decide which approach to try and adjust it based on what works in practice.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since they are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose approaches and session rhythms that fit daily life and goals.
