My name is Donatella, and I have dedicated over 40 years to palliative care, acute mental health, and holistic therapies, including running my own business, and  volunteering in bereavement and mental health charities. Motivated by personal challenges and experiences, particularly when facing bereavement and loss, I developed a passion for studying counselling and hypnotherapy in order to help others who are struggling with their difficulties. I am warm and empathic, who listens without judgment while upholding to the BACP' and GHR' ethical standards.  I use a variety of counselling approaches, which means I customise your therapy to meet your needs, as we work on your goals for therapy. However, my primary concern is how we establish and maintain a safe and confidential therapeutic relationship, helping you feel reassured and nurtured, enabling you to  freely express your thoughts and feelings, and be truly heard. 

Reaching out during times of worry and despair can be challenging, but I empathize—I've been there. Remember, you are significant, and you have every right to a life filled with joy, not emotional suffering. Lifes journey can be rocky, and not always plain sailing, however embracing the potential for change can cultivate self-awareness, and a better understanding of who you are. I would like to support you navigate a clearer direction, helping you build stronger relationships  and connections with yourself and those around you, and to uncover a renewed sense of purpose and understanding in your life. Here's to thriving, and not just getting by!
