Donna Tiemeyer, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About Donna

Donna Tiemeyer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, addiction, parenting challenges, anger, and major life changes. Her approach is warm and accepting, and she aims to make the first step into counseling feel manageable for each person.

Donna listens first, then builds a plan that fits an individual's personality and goals.

Background and approach

She draws on client-centered methods to create a caring space where concerns are heard. She also uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to tackle unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness practices are part of her toolbox for managing anxiety and stress.

Narrative techniques help people reframe difficult experiences and see different possibilities. Motivational interviewing supports those who are ready to make change but feel uncertain about how to start. Her background includes work with trauma, post-traumatic stress, and substance use in treatment settings.

She also has experience with hospice and end-of-life counseling, immigration issues, veteran and armed forces concerns, multicultural matters, and seasonal affective disorder. Donna brings that breadth into sessions while tailoring strategies to each person's needs. Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules.

Donna emphasizes collaboration and steady pacing so people can build coping skills and move toward their goals at a comfortable speed.

Therapeutic approaches that work online

Donna uses client-centered therapy to create an accepting space where people can talk about what matters most to them. This approach focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs so therapy fits their pace and personality.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and shift the behaviors that follow. CBT is practical and useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Narrative therapy is another tool she brings in to help people tell and reshape the stories they carry about themselves and their relationships.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Donna discusses options with each person and adjusts methods based on goals, preferences, and what works in early sessions. She stays flexible and checks in regularly to make sure the plan feels helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase convenience and fit different schedules. These formats let people connect from home, balance therapy with work and family, and pick the communication style that feels most comfortable. The goal is to make consistent support accessible while using the therapeutic approaches that best meet each person's needs.

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.
