About Donna
Dr. Donna Daniel helps people facing grief, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, stress, addiction, and a wide range of life transitions. She also supports those dealing with parenting challenges, caregiver strain, body image, career shifts, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and issues related to gender and HIV/AIDS. Dr. Donna Daniel brings 35 years of counseling experience to her work in New Mexico and uses practical, down-to-earth language in sessions.
She describes her style as an open, eclectic approach that blends clinical ideas with intuition and lived wisdom. Sessions are conversational and focused on what the client wants to change. She emphasizes brief, goal-oriented work but is willing to return to topics over time when needed.
Mindfulness practice is one part of her approach, used to help people notice patterns and calm reactivity. Client-centered work means she listens first and follows the client's priorities. Jungian and narrative ideas are woven in to explore personal stories and deeper meaning when helpful.
Dr. Daniel draws on many years of diverse experience, including work in varied settings and international travel that shaped her perspective. She is comfortable talking about faith and spirituality and understands both faith-based healing and faith-related struggles. She expects clients to be ready to do the work of changing harmful patterns.
Her background includes longstanding grief work and trauma-informed care. She prefers straightforward, practical steps alongside reflective exploration. People who want direct conversation and an experienced clinician who brings both practical tools and reflective depth tend to seek her out.
