About Donnah

Donnah Hewlett is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, cope with grief and loss, and adjust to life changes. She also supports those working on motivation, self-esteem and confidence.

Her recent work has included supporting people who struggle with compulsive sexual behaviours and pornography-related addiction, and the partners affected by these issues. Donnah focuses on clear, practical conversations about feelings and behaviour. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at noticing patterns and trying different responses.

She uses a mix of approaches that include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centred listening, mindfulness and motivational interviewing. That allows her to combine structured work on thoughts and habits with space for people to speak about what matters most to them.

In sessions she aims to reduce shame and blame and to help clients spot unhelpful thinking and habits. She offers concrete steps people can practise between meetings, such as simple mindfulness exercises and behavioural experiments drawn from CBT.

Donnah accepts clients from the UK and internationally and runs sessions in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Donnah uses CBT, client-centred and mindfulness work online

In online sessions Donnah draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behaviour changes. CBT offers concrete exercises and short experiments people can try between meetings to reduce anxiety or change compulsive habits. She also uses a client-centred approach which focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says, so they can make sense of their concerns in their own words. Mindfulness techniques are introduced as brief practices to reduce reactivity and improve awareness of thoughts and bodily signals. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Donnah collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and preferences. She combines structured CBT tools with open listening and simple mindfulness where useful. The biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when a quick update is needed. It also makes ongoing work possible for people who live outside the therapist's local area, subject to any regional considerations.
