Donnah Hewlett is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She has six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and supports people dealing with stress, anxiety and low mood. Donnah also helps those facing life changes, grief, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation.

Her practice includes attention to relationship concerns and intimacy-related difficulties, as well as addiction-related behaviours.

Background and approach

She offers a calm space for discussing painful experiences and difficult emotions without judgement. Donnah aims to make the first steps into therapy easier and acknowledges that reaching out can feel daunting. In sessions she uses practical, conversational methods to help people make small changes that matter.

That can mean noticing unhelpful thoughts, trying simple mindfulness exercises, or setting small goals to build motivation. She adapts the pace to what each person needs and checks in about progress regularly. Donnah takes an exploratory approach to life events and family of origin issues, helping people unpack patterns that repeat over time.

She also supports those coping with chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns and eating-related difficulties. Her work includes focus on abandonment, attachment and commitment issues. Therapy is offered in English and is available to people in the UK and internationally.

Sessions use flexible formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short questionnaire and scheduling a time with the therapist.

Approaches used in online sessions and what they do

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's perspective. The therapist follows the person's lead and helps them clarify feelings and choices, which can be useful for low mood, self-esteem and relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going. It teaches practical techniques to test negative thoughts and try small behavioural changes, which can help with anxiety, stress and mood problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Donnah will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and agree on methods together. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs shift.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy schedules or mobility limits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel, phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is low, and chat or text sessions suit quick check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and other commitments, while still working with registered or accredited professionals and experienced therapists.
