Donna Garman

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

As a seasoned therapist with four decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life’s complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients address challenges such as isolation, life transitions, grief, and personal growth. I have deep expertise in supporting older adults through significant life changes, career difficulties, and emotional healing.

My therapeutic approach is compassionate and personalized, designed to help you explore your inner strengths and develop meaningful coping strategies. I understand the nuanced emotional experiences of individuals facing transitions like divorce, caregiving responsibilities, chronic health challenges, and periods of self-discovery.

I am committed to creating a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings, rediscover your sense of purpose, and work through difficult emotions like abandonment and loss. Together, we’ll develop practical tools to manage stress, rebuild self-esteem, and move toward greater emotional resilience.
i strongly prefer to work through video supplemented by texting through the BetterHelp App.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether remote therapy can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or adapting to life changes, online therapy has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person work. One major benefit is convenience and flexibility – people can meet with a therapist in the way that fits their schedule and comfort level, whether by video, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to maintain regular care and to fit sessions into a busy life. All therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change providers if they seek a different therapeutic fit. For many individuals, online therapy provides a practical and effective route to address everyday emotional challenges and support long-term well-being.
