Hi there and welcome to my page.

I'm Donna and I’m a counsellor based in Bridlington, East Yorkshire.

As well as face to face sessions, I offer online appointments and Walk and Talk Therapy.

On here you'll find a little bit more information about the counselling that I provide, but do feel free to get in touch to see if I'm the right person you'd like to support you.

“What is the bravest thing you have ever said?” asked the boy… “Help” said the horse. To me, this quote by Charlie Mackesy, shows the strength needed to reach out for help, especially to a stranger. You may ask - “Why would I want to share my worries, fears, and all that I hold within me to you?” My reply would be that by reading this you are already curious as to what counselling can do for you.

I feel passionate that you have the right to enter into a supportive relationship. I will offer you a safe space and time in which you will be accepted, heard and understood without any fear of judgement.
It is a space to breathe and reflect at your own pace. I don't believe we have it all figured out, but from my own personal struggles and life experiences I do have an in depth understanding of how life-changing counselling can be. I would like to share your journey with you and I will value your bravery in asking for help in taking that first step.

Fees: £45 (1 hour)
Appointments: Face to face, online or Walk and Talk

Walk and Talk Therapy - we simply walk and talk without the constraints of being inside. Some clients are more comfortable walking and talking and find it easier to start discussing their problems when strolling along a path amongst nature.

I am happy for you to set the pace of the walk and we can work in a seated break if you prefer. You don't need to be super fit to do walk and talk - it's your time so we go with whatever you need.

We can either start from my front door or at an agreed location within the local area and we will agree the route beforehand.

Perhaps you might have tried traditional counselling and it wasn't for you, then walk and talk could be a great alternative. Or if you struggle with the thought of sitting in a room with someone looking at you, then this takes that pressure off. Or maybe you're nervous about being inside, then this could be the support you are looking for.

Fees are the same as other appointments at £45 per hour.
