About Donna

Dr. Donna Pritchard is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York and Florida with 10 years of experience. She focuses on grief, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and trauma and abuse. She also addresses caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, life purpose, and women's issues in her work.

Her practice centers on straightforward conversation about what is troubling someone now. She listens for practical patterns and helps people try small changes that make day-to-day life easier. Sessions can include talking through painful memories, planning manageable steps, and building skills to handle setbacks.

Donna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and try different responses. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify immediate goals and steps that feel doable. Trauma-Focused Therapy is part of her approach when past events are getting in the way of current functioning.

She welcomes people who are looking for a faith-informed option and those who prefer a therapist with experience in hospice and caregiver stress. The work is collaborative - she and the client set goals and review progress together. Practical tools and clear steps are emphasized alongside emotional processing.

Donna practices in Florida and brings a decade of clinical social work experience to her sessions. People who want a grounded, practical approach to grief, life transitions, or recovery from traumatic experiences may find this style helpful.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches are used in online sessions

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying patterns of thought that contribute to distress and trying different responses. It helps with problems like low self-esteem and practical coping during life changes. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for what is already working and builds short-term steps to reach specific goals. It can be helpful for quick, concrete changes in daily routines. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the effects of past hurt and on skills to reduce symptoms that interfere with current life.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals and preferences together and try methods that fit the person’s needs. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked so the plan stays useful.

This profile does not specify exact session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can adapt exercises, homework, and skill practice for remote sessions so therapy stays practical and focused on daily functioning.
