About Donna
Dr. Donna Daniel is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in New Mexico who brings 35 years of experience to her work.
Background and approach
She supports people managing grief, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, stress, addictions, self-esteem concerns, trauma and abuse, and other life transitions. Her practice also addresses a wide range of related topics including career challenges, parenting, sleep and eating concerns, compassion fatigue, bipolar symptoms, and issues affecting LGBT clients.
Her therapeutic stance is eclectic and pragmatic, drawing on client-centered, Jungian, mindfulness, narrative, and psychodynamic ideas to tailor sessions to each person’s needs. Donna emphasizes bringing her full presence to sessions and uses intuition alongside clinical knowledge to sense what will be most useful.
She values brief, goal-focused work while remaining open to longer cycles when deeper exploration is needed. Born from decades of varied clinical settings and cross-cultural experiences, her approach blends practical coaching with reflective inquiry.
She will work collaboratively to identify patterns, build coping skills, and support changes clients want to make, offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different preferences and schedules.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Practice
Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and helps clients articulate their own goals and solutions. This approach can be helpful for people struggling with self-esteem, life transitions, relationship concerns, and many forms of emotional distress. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple awareness skills to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation; it often supports work with anxiety, stress, grief, and ongoing mood challenges. Psychodynamic therapy explores patterns that emerge from past experience and current relationships, offering insight into recurring difficulties and helping people make different choices in their lives.
Finding the right approach is an interactive process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the focus as the work progresses. Clients and therapist together determine whether brief, solution-focused work or longer exploration is most useful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward meaningful change.
