Getting to know Donna Lawrence

I am so glad you are here! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have a strong background in mental health treatment as I have been providing care for over 25 years. I am dedicated to providing compassionate and effective support to individuals and couples navigating challenges. My goal is to help clients achieve lasting positive change through evidence-based practices and personalized care. My approach I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as my primary approach to providing therapy. CBT is an evidence-based treatment that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors. By helping clients develop healthier thinking patterns and coping strategies, I aim to empower them to manage their mental health. Through personalized sessions, I work collaboratively with my clients to assist them with achieving their therapeutic goals and foster lasting positive change. An additional approach I utilize is client-centered therapy. This approach is grounded in the belief that clients have the innate capacity for self-understanding and growth. I prioritize the unique needs and experiences of each individual I encounter and create a supportive and non-judgmental environment. I provide active listening, support, and empathy while encouraging my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings openly. I will work closely with those in my care to assist them with identifying their strengths and help them work towards their personal goals. My focus My client focus is typically individual sessions with adolescents (12+) and adults (or couple sessions) who are experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, grief, life changes, and/or marital issues. I tailor sessions to meet the needs of each age group, ensuring that therapy is age-appropriate and effective.
