About Donna
Donna Murison, MBACP (Accred) offers support for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, ADHD, addictions and a wide range of other concerns. She aims to make the first steps into therapy straightforward and calming. Donna practices in the United Kingdom and carries ten years of clinical experience.
Donna is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Donna uses a person-centred base to create a warm, non-judgemental space.
Background and approach
She works collaboratively, helping people set small, achievable goals. Sessions focus on practical strategies as well as understanding the feelings behind behaviours. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help change unhelpful thinking and behaviours.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used to help people live by their values even when emotions are difficult. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and responses. Donna also includes elements from dialectical behaviour therapy and compassion-focused work when helpful.
These methods give tools for managing intense emotion and reducing self-criticism. The overall aim is to build skills, increase emotional resilience and support clearer decision making. She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat and text messaging, and works with international clients in English.
Fees vary by location and are charged via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a session is scheduled according to therapist availability.

Online support
Finding the right approach is a shared task. Donna works collaboratively to test methods and adjust the plan as therapy progresses. She listens to what works for the person and combines tools from different approaches to meet their goals and preferences.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow a face-to-face style conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can work for brief check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options provide flexibility for fitting therapy around work, caregiving and day-to-day life while keeping the focus on practical strategies and emotional understanding.
