About Donna
Donna Deadman, LPC, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or big life changes. She works with adults and teens to tackle issues like relationship strain, parenting challenges, anger, ADHD, and intimacy concerns. Her approach aims to make progress feel practical and manageable.
Donna uses clear, goal-focused methods so sessions feel useful from the start. She brings six years of clinical experience along with past work as a school counselor. In session she listens, reflects what she hears, and helps clients identify small steps they can try between meetings.
Her background includes a Master’s in Counseling from Loyola College in Baltimore and prior experience supporting students in schools. That school counseling work shaped how she talks with teens and adults about routine stressors and life transitions.
Therapy sessions combine problem-focused techniques and awareness-building practices. Donna draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to work on thoughts and behaviors, and on client-centered and attachment-based ideas to strengthen connection and self-understanding. She adapts techniques to each person’s pace and goals.
She also addresses longer-term themes such as trauma, abandonment, caregiving stress, and blended family dynamics. People who want clear steps, honest feedback, and practical ways to manage everyday pressures may find her style helpful.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It’s useful for anxiety, stress, and making changes that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and helps people try practical experiments to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating and feeling secure.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Donna will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She treats the process as collaborative, adjusting techniques as progress and preferences become clearer.
