About Donna

Donna King is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, parenting strain, addiction concerns, grief, or career changes.

She brings 18 years of clinical experience to sessions and uses straightforward, practical methods. Sessions are calm and focused on what a person wants to change.

Background and approach

Donna aims to listen without judgment and to help people find steps they can try between meetings. Her approach draws on client-centered principles that keep the person’s concerns at the center of the work. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors.

For trauma that continues to cause distress, Donna includes EMDR as one of the approaches she may use. Clients can expect a mix of talking, practical coping strategies, and guided exercises tailored to their goals. Donna pays attention to how life events and relationships shape daily feelings and choices.

She often combines short-term skill building with deeper conversation when that fits the person’s needs. Donna makes room for each person’s values and beliefs during sessions. She offers care to people with and without religious faith and focuses on respectful, collaborative work that helps people move forward.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Donna uses client-centered therapy to keep each person’s needs and values at the heart of the work. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting what is said, and helping people name their goals so sessions follow what matters most.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into smaller, manageable steps.

For people who carry the effects of traumatic events, Donna may include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as part of care. When used, EMDR helps process distressing memories and reduce the intensity of related symptoms through a structured sequence agreed with the person.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Donna will talk with each person about their goals, past experience with therapy, and preferences, then recommend methods to try together and adjust as needed.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when writing helps clarify feelings. These formats aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
