About Donna
Dr. Donna Pritchard helps people facing grief, low self-esteem, life transitions, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also focuses on caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, finding life purpose, and women's issues.
Donna is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience and practices in Florida. Her sessions are grounded in straightforward conversation and practical steps. She listens for what matters most, then suggests small tools and goals that fit daily life.
How Donna works
Faith is part of her perspective when clients want that included, and she aims to respect each person’s beliefs. Donna uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused approaches, and trauma-focused work. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thinking, try brief experiments to test new behaviors, and process upsetting memories in ways that reduce their hold on daily life.
She keeps the work focused and goal-oriented so progress is clear. People meet her by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Sessions follow the pace the person prefers, with room for both practical problem solving and deeper emotional work.
She explains options plainly and adjusts as needs change. Her Florida practice emphasizes steady support and real-world tools. Donna aims to help people build coping skills, recover a sense of purpose, and move forward after loss or hardship.

How her approaches work in online sessions
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. It is useful for low self-esteem, anxiety around life changes, and managing stressful reactions. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on practical steps and small changes that move a person toward their goals; it is often brief and action-oriented. Trauma-Focused Therapy provides structured ways to address past hurt so it has less impact on daily life and coping.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to goals and preferences, try methods that match those needs, and adjust based on what helps. Clients and the therapist work together to find the pace and tools that fit each situation.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual cues for deeper conversation, while phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter updates, quick problem solving, or days when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, and travel schedules.
