About me

Hello. My name is Dr. Donna, and I am a licensed Psychologist with over 20 years of clinical experience. I am a native northerner currently residing in the south. I think that blend affords me the ability to see situations from a variety of perspectives. This ability to perspective take is quite beneficial when helping others to achieve their personal and professional goals! I am clinically trained as a cognitive behavioral therapist, though I understand and value the importance of developing a positive client/therapist relationship. Through the use of relationship and a focus on goal-setting, I use a variety of strategies and tools to assist clients with achieving breakthrough in areas that may have previously frustrated them. Taking that first step to seek a therapist can be a scary one, but know that you won't be alone throughout your therapeutic journey to healing, self-discovery, and emotional/psychological relief.

Dr. Gardner has been a wonderful counselor for my spouse and I as we work through some relationship challenges. She really listens and understands us and is also great at offering practical guidance and recommendations. She seems to really “get” us and what we are going through. It’s so hard to find a good counselor, especially for a couple, and she is exactly what we have needed and were looking for.

Dr. Gardner is a phenomenal counselor. I immediately clicked with her because I felt that she really listened to my concerns. She is very passionate and straightforward, which is what I needed in a counselor. I’m thankful that our paths crossed and I’m learning so much about myself (I’m a practical manner) that I chose to tune out.

Work with me!
