About Donna

Donna Maye is a licensed mental health counselor in Indiana with 13 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and issues around intimacy and relationships. Donna also supports those dealing with parenting and family strains, workplace pressure, and money and financial issues.

She takes a straightforward approach in sessions. Donna listens to each person’s story and helps them name practical goals. She uses methods that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to create better day-to-day functioning.

Donna draws on real-life understanding as well as clinical experience. She recognizes how life transitions, hurts, and loss can affect mood and motivation. That perspective shapes how she helps people rebuild confidence and find renewed direction.

In the therapy room she aims to balance empathy with action. Conversations often move from exploring what matters to trying small, manageable changes. Progress is measured in what feels different in ordinary life, like sleeping better, arguing less, or feeling more able to make financial decisions.

She believes the person in therapy is the expert on their own life. Her role is to offer tools, feedback, and accountability while people test out new ways of coping. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she frames early sessions as a chance to clarify priorities and decide on next steps together.

How CBT Can Guide Online Progress

Donna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in clear, practical ways. CBT helps people notice thoughts and behaviors that worsen stress or anxiety, then replace them with experiments and habits that lead to small, measurable improvements. It is often helpful for anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, and managing daily reactions to money and relationship stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Donna will collaborate with each person to test methods and adjust the plan based on goals and preferences. Sessions focus on what is useful now and on building skills to handle future challenges.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into busy lives by removing travel time, making it easier to schedule short check-ins, or allowing workday appointments. Online sessions also support continuity when life or location changes, while the therapist and client decide together how to structure visits to meet practical needs.
