Donna Matthews

I currently have some availability within my practice. My hours are flexible and negotiable. Please feel free to call, text or email to enquire. I work remotely offering online or telephone appointments. I can cover any area or location. I have no planned holidays but will let you know well in advance so not to disturb the therapy. Happy to answer any queries you may have in relation to counselling services offered.

I offer a free introductory informal chat to see if we are suited to work with each other. If we feel that I am not a suitable counsellor for your needs then I will happily assist you in your search. In most cases people choose to work with me as I have twenty five years counselling experience in various settings. We will personalise the therapy for you depending on what you can afford and the presenting problem. The counselling sessions last for fifty minutes and structured at a frequency, time and day that suits you. My services are provided remotely via zoom or telephone. I am qualified and compassionate so you can confidently work with me as your therapist. 

I have been working in private practice counselling for over two decades. I also hold a psychology degree and have experience in couple, family and group counselling. My counselling training was firmly based in person centred counselling with an ethos of a professional, confidential service.

A first session is spent getting to know you and the difficulties you are experiencing. My aim is to assist you with the challenges you are facing. Each client is different hence the therapy will be unique to your needs. We can go at a pace and depth that suits you. I want you to feel safe, heard and understood. I will feedback to you my understanding so we can mutually agree on areas to be addressed. You will not be rushed therapy is a process and I want you to feel accepted and respected.

I offer online supervision. Twenty five years experience as a person centred counsellor. Specialising in addiction & mental health. Trauma informed. Recently qualified as a supervisor trained in the seven eyed & cyclical model. Happy to offer concessions if you are a student, building your business or light counselling load. I consider myself to be down to earth, intuitive & spiritual. Registered member of Â鶹ԭ´´ & fully insured. Qualifications diploma counselling, degree psychology, family, couple & group counselling. Hypnotherapy, mindfulness, addictions recovery & vaping coach. Vast experience in the voluntary sector woman’s refuge, arts institute & hospice. Please feel free to reach out for a free initial consultation to see if we are suited to work together.

I work remotely over zoom on a day & time convenient to you. I aim to be as flexible as possible as we all have busy lives. Down to earth with a good sense of humour whilst remaining professional at all times.

Passionate about helping others excel & feel confident about themselves. My motto is to build each other up in a world that can so easily tear people down.

The first session is free & consists of an informal discussion of your needs & requirements. I aim to make you feel as comfortable as possible as I know reaching out in any capacity can be daunting. I then invite you to go away & think about whether you would like to work with me. If you feel that you would like to continue with me we will set a day & time suited to both parties. There will be a flexible contract & shared goals. If you feel you would be better suited working with someone else I am happy to assist you in your search.
