About Donna
Donna Wolf Robichaud is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and parenting concerns. She uses straightforward support and practical strategies so parents and caregivers can manage day-to-day challenges and feel more in control. Donna has been working in the field for 22 years and brings steady, calm presence to conversations about hard life moments.
Her style is warm and person-focused. She listens first, then works with each person to set clear, realistic goals.
Background and approach
Sessions often include short, hands-on tools to practice between meetings. People leave sessions with steps they can try at home. Donna draws from well-researched methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy.
She also uses mindfulness and solution-focused techniques when they fit the situation. These approaches help with symptoms like panic, low mood, and trouble handling big life changes. She holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential - LPC - and is licensed in Texas (TX LPC 73001) and Michigan (MI LPC 6401010913).
Donna offers sessions in English and accepts international clients, providing options that fit different schedules. Typical concerns she addresses include parenting struggles, family problems, caregiver stress, burnout, and life transitions such as midlife shifts or illness-related changes. Her work also covers ADHD, anger, self-esteem, and career questions.
To begin, clients choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a session based on availability.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Donna blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to help people make practical changes. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, panic, and depression symptoms. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy, giving clients space to be heard and to decide their own goals.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy when attention and stress management are needed. Mindfulness offers simple practices to notice thoughts and bodily sensations, which can help with rumination and emotional overwhelm. Together these methods offer concrete skills and a supportive space for working through parenting challenges, caregiver stress, and life transitions.
Donna approaches choosing methods as a team effort. She will discuss what feels most useful and adjust techniques to match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. Clients are invited to try options and give feedback so the plan evolves with their progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. These options allow sessions from home or while traveling and support ongoing contact between meetings when that is helpful.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
