About Donnelle
Donnelle Haun is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with four years of clinical experience based in Idaho. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, and ADHD. She also focuses on communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.
Donnelle frames therapy as a collaborative process. She pays attention to the whole person and incorporates mindfulness and bodily awareness in sessions. She uses nature-based metaphors and sensory regulation tools to help people manage reactivity and intense emotions.
In a typical meeting she helps clients notice patterns that keep them stuck and practices concrete skills to respond differently. Sessions may include grounding exercises, brief mindfulness practice, and talking through how relationships or past hurts shape current feelings. She aims to make clinical ideas practical and usable day to day.
Donnelle often supports people working through guilt and shame by separating feeling from action, naming self-critical thoughts, and exploring forgiveness where it matters to the client. She helps people develop clearer communication and strategies for limiting the impact of anxiety or impulsive urges tied to addiction.
Her work emphasizes steady, small changes rather than dramatic fixes. People who prefer a direct, skill-focused approach that still acknowledges emotions may find this style helpful. Those interested in beginning are invited to review online therapy options and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Transpersonal-informed work emphasizes the whole person and often brings attention to body senses and meaningful imagery. In practice this can mean short mindful exercises, breathing work, and nature-based metaphors to help people notice physical signals and link them to emotions. This approach can support people wrestling with existential concerns, life purpose, or spiritual dimensions of shame.Mindfulness and sensory regulation are concrete strategies that reduce reactivity. Mindfulness teaches simple attention skills so strong feelings are less overwhelming. Sensory regulation uses easy grounding techniques to calm the nervous system in moments of high stress or anxiety.
Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, try approaches that fit the situation, and adjust based on what helps. This is a practical process aimed at matching techniques to daily life needs.
