Find a Licensed Online Therapist in Rhode Island

Hello, I am a Licensed Social Worker and licensed Addiction Counselor. I worked as a School Social Worker in Pawtucket, RI and retired. I was based at a middle school but worked with all students, parents and staff in an inner city school for 17 years. The population was culturally diverse and presented with a multitude of issues. I also worked part-time as an Outpatient Therapist for 15 years and specialized in Trauma and Addictions. As a Social Worker for over 25 years I have worked with a variety of populations. I have worked with dually-diagnosed, chronic mentally ill on a Mobile treatment Team which I found rewarding and challenging. As a Therapist I have dealt with trauma, anxiety, depression, sexual abuse, addictions, chronic guilt and shame , physical illness, LBTGQ life issues, stress and life changes. My approach is empathetic and non-judgmental. I feel that humor and gratitude can be helpful in dealing with life and day to day stress. I will challenge your thinking and coping strategies and feel it was a good session if you leave thinking about the session. I will assist you in setting goals and moving forward.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Oklahoma. I have provided therapy for a diverse population of clients over the past nine years.

I'm so glad you are here. My practice offers an individualized approach that focuses on empowering you. Is life filled with stress? Do you feel anxious, unhappy, or just exhausted all the time? Trauma and wounds impact all of us, and repair work is a process. Feeling stuck in the past or a painful experience is something that does not have to be the way you walk through the world. I believe that healing takes place when we feel understood. My hope is to guide you through a process with gaining a sense of control on your journey and to create an upward momentum. I have found my style works best by listening to reflect your experience, exploring and understanding the root cause of your concerns, collaborating to establish a shared purpose, and developing a plan that supports your goals. It's wonderful that you've taken this first step. I'd love to learn more about what you're needing and see if we may be a good fit to work together. My practice offers both day and evening hours. Please reach out to connect.

I’m Donna and I work with adults navigating medical trauma, chronic illness, major health events, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by the emotional impact of a diagnosis, hospitalization, transplant, disability, or other life-changing experience. Together, we create a supportive space to process difficult experiences, identify strengths, develop coping skills, and build resilience. My goal is to help clients move forward with greater confidence and hope. For clients who desire it, I welcome discussions of faith and can incorporate Christian beliefs and values into therapy. As a two-time transplant survivor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I specialize in medical trauma, chronic illness, and life transitions. My master’s degree in Clinical Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling provided specialized training in adjustment to medical conditions and disabilities. I utilize CBT, MI, and EMDR-informed interventions. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re facing a health challenge, major life change, or difficult season. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I would be honored to provide a supportive space where you can heal, grow, and move forward with hope and confidence.

I became a therapist because I believe healing starts when people finally feel safe enough to stop performing and start being fully seen. Everyone deserves a space where they feel heard, supported, understood, and accepted without judgment. Life can become overwhelming when you are carrying stress, navigating major transitions, managing relationships, balancing responsibilities, or constantly feeling like you have to hold everything together for everyone else. Over time, even high-functioning people can begin to feel exhausted, disconnected, anxious, or unsure of who they are outside of taking care of others. I work primarily with adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally drained, or stretched too thin. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, people-pleasing patterns, boundaries, divorce, relationship concerns, workplace stress, imposter syndrome, identity development, personal growth, and life transitions that leave them questioning what comes next. My approach is warm, collaborative, culturally responsive, and practical. Therapy with me is not about judgment or perfection. It is about creating space for honest conversations, meaningful insight, and real change. Together, we identify patterns that no longer serve you, strengthen coping strategies, improve communication, increase confidence, and develop healthier ways of showing up for yourself and the people you care about. I integrate evidence-based approaches while recognizing that every person’s story, values, and lived experiences deserve to be honored. My goal is to provide care that feels both clinically grounded and deeply human. Whether you are processing change, recovering from difficult experiences, building healthier relationships, or simply trying to reconnect with yourself, you do not have to figure it all out alone. We will begin where you are and move at a pace that feels supportive and sustainable. I strive to make therapy feel like a place where you can finally exhale, reflect, grow, and create a life that feels more aligned, balanced, and fulfilling. Outside of the therapy space, I enjoy traveling, spending time with family, attending concerts, exploring museums, and relaxing near the beach. Those moments remind me that healing is not only about surviving difficult seasons. It is also about creating room for joy, connection, restoration, and living fully. I currently have openings for adult clients in Illinois, Minnesota, and Rhode Island.
