About Donnah
Donnah Hewlett is a counsellor with six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She is a Registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, NCPS. Donnah works with people who are anxious, stressed, grieving, or adjusting to major life changes.
She also helps those facing relationship issues, intimacy concerns, addictive behaviours, and self‑esteem struggles. She aims to make sessions feel open and non‑judgemental.
Background and approach
Donnah invites people to talk about difficult feelings and painful events at a pace that suits them. She emphasises clear, practical conversation and gentle challenge when it helps move things forward. Her background includes work on compulsive sexual behaviours and addiction to pornography, along with supporting partners affected by those behaviours.
Donnah also has experience with maternal mental health concerns, motivation and confidence, and coping with chronic illness and caregiver stress. In practice she draws on a mix of approaches such as client‑centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. These tools are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try small changes, and build steadier ways of coping.
People who feel unsure what will happen in therapy often find it helpful to start with a short conversation about goals and expectations. Donnah encourages practical steps and homework when useful, while keeping the focus on what matters most to the person in front of her.

How Donnah’s approaches translate to online work
Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience without judgement. This approach helps people feel heard and make sense of their feelings before deciding on next steps.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. It is often used to reduce anxiety, manage low mood, and change unhelpful habits through practical exercises and small experiments.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breath exercises to reduce stress and bring more steadiness to daily life. It can be useful alongside other techniques when emotions feel overwhelming.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Donnah will work with each person to set clear goals and try methods that suit their needs and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check‑ins when needed, and offer flexible timing for people living in different places. Registered or accredited professionals often use a mix of conversation and short exercises that transfer well to remote sessions.
