About Donna
Donna Daigle-Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who uses a practical, person-centered way of working. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the effects of trauma and abuse. Her tone is direct and encouraging, aimed at people who are taking a first step toward change.
Donna spends sessions building a straightforward, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what feels hardest. She listens for values and motivations, then helps people set goals that matter to them. Conversations are meant to be clear and useful rather than clinical or confusing.
Over seven years of practice have given her experience with addictions, bipolar concerns, grief, and major life changes. She also supports people facing relationship strain, communication problems, and challenges related to ADHD. First responder issues, guilt and shame, and struggles with self-love and self-harm are additional areas she addresses.
Her approach draws on methods like Motivational Interviewing to encourage change, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to reshape unhelpful thinking and behavior. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and client-centered techniques are also part of her toolbox when they match a person’s needs.
Donna aims to work collaboratively, helping each person choose practical steps they can take between sessions. She sees beginning therapy as a brave decision and focuses on small, manageable shifts that build toward steadier days.

How these approaches work in online sessions
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people clarify their reasons for change and strengthen their own motivation. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters to them and take action toward those values while handling difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to improve daily functioning.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then recommend which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adjusted over time if something isn’t working.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as scheduling sessions around work or family commitments. Some formats are better for brief check-ins, while others allow for longer, more in-depth conversation without travel. Licensed professionals can tailor pacing, homework, and session focus to make remote care practical and effective. -
