About Donna
Donna King is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Missouri who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family strain, trauma and abuse, and money and financial issues. She draws on nearly two decades of practice to support people dealing with grief, addictions, intimacy challenges, parenting strain, career questions, and major life transitions. Donna meets people where they are and aims to treat everyone with dignity and respect.
Her approach is warm and accepting. She combines client-centered listening with practical techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy. She also works with emotion-focused ideas and trauma-informed tools when they fit the situation. Donna notes spiritual beliefs can be part of sessions when clients want that included.
In sessions she listens for what matters most and helps map small, doable steps forward. That might mean looking at unhelpful thinking, practicing different ways to communicate, or processing past painful events. Practical coping strategies and clearer goals are a frequent focus when people are feeling overwhelmed.
Donna has 18 years of experience as a counselor in Missouri. She has worked with people affected by military and disaster-related trauma in addition to civilian trauma. Her background includes a range of concerns such as codependency, blended family issues, caregiver stress, infidelity, and issues veterans and armed forces members face.
People who choose her can expect a collaborative process that balances listening with concrete tools. She invites clients to share their goals so sessions can be tailored to daily life and real-world challenges.
How these approaches work in online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping people decide their own goals. In practice this means the therapist reflects what is said, asks questions to clarify needs, and supports the person in choosing next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.Donna also uses elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy when relationship or attachment concerns are central. EFT helps people identify and name emotions, and then try new ways of responding that can improve connection and reduce reactivity. These approaches aim to be understandable and actionable so they can be used between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences in a collaborative way. Expect adjustments over time as priorities and circumstances change.
