Donna Parker

Donna Parker
Counselor, LMHC, LADC1

I have been working with individuals and families for over 20 years. My eclectic approach includes CBT, DBT and reprocessing such as EMDR. We are not the sum of our issues. We have strengths and resiliencies allowing us to become aware of patterns and ways of coping that have served us in the past but may not be effective in the present. In collaborating, we identify needs and goals. Through appropriate therapeutic modalities we gain clarity, begin to shift behavior and create new outcomes. This is called growth and can have a ripple effect in other aspects of our lives.
I collaborate with individual clients who present with anxiety and depression, issues of abuse and neglect, PTSD and trauma. I am well-versed in family systems addressing communication and other facets of family interaction systemically. I treat substance-abuse disorders, codependency and address ACOA issues. I am certified in EMDR.
I value a strength-based approach. I have seen over the years client’s tremendous ability, resilience and flexibility to make small shifts in their ways of thinking about or responding to a problem thus opening up many paths to achieving their goals.
