Donnah Hewlett , BACP, NCPS

Donnah Hewlett is a UK-based therapist with six years of professional experience supporting people through a broad range of emotional and relational challenges. She is a registered member of professional bodies BACP and NCPS, reflecting her formal background in counselling and psychotherapy and her commitment to ongoing professional standards. Donnah’s practice focuses on stress and anxiety, depression, coping with life changes, grief and loss, maternal mental health, and issues of motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

In recent work she has developed specialist experience helping individuals and partners affected by compulsive sexual behaviours and pornography-related addiction, while also addressing intimacy-related concerns and relationship dynamics. Her approach centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly, and where clients can take the steps they need at their own pace.

Donnah aims to work collaboratively, helping people understand patterns, build coping strategies, and reconnect with their values and goals. She brings a blend of practical techniques and empathic listening to support recovery and positive change, particularly for those facing trauma, family or parenting challenges, addiction, or transitions in life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive relationship where the therapist offers empathy and genuine support while clients lead the pace and focus of work - this approach is useful for building self-esteem, exploring identity, and navigating life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours; it is often used to manage anxiety, depression, and stress by developing practical coping skills and problem-solving strategies. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-focused awareness and grounding techniques that can reduce reactivity, help manage cravings and emotional overwhelm, and support ongoing regulation.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Donnah works with each person to assess their needs, goals, and preferences, and will tailor methods or combine approaches so therapy fits the individual. Clients are involved in deciding what feels most helpful at every step.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule appointments, access support from different locations, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable, while allowing continued continuity of care even when life circumstances change.
