Professional Narrative Therapy Counselling Services
You are not the problem, the problem is the problem.

My Story.....
Hi, I’m Donna. I have over 20 years of experience in the social services sector and hold a Master’s in Counselling. I work with individuals, families, and children facing trauma, complex challenges, and high-conflict situations.
My approach is grounded in narrative therapy, which sees people as separate from their problems and the experts in their own lives. I create a safe, compassionate space to explore the stories that shape your experiences and uncover new possibilities for growth and connection.
I also work as an ADHD coach and facilitate programs such as Parenting Through Neurodivergence and Workplace Wellbeing Programs, helping people and teams navigate challenges with confidence.
I believe every story matters. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, what matters most, and discover new ways of moving forward—one story at a time.
I acknowledge the Quandamooka People of Moreton Bay, the Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander Owners of the land where we gather today and pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging. I recognise their connection to Country and their role in caring for and maintaining Country over thousands of years.

Therapy
Chronic Pain
Counselling
At Coast to Coast Counselling, individual counselling sessions provide a respectful and collaborative space where your stories can be heard and explored. Through a narrative therapy approach, I work alongside you to understand how challenges have been influencing your life and to uncover the skills, values, and hopes that can guide new possibilities and preferred ways of living.
At Coast to Coast Counselling, our family therapy sessions provide a collaborative and respectful space for families to share their experiences and stories. Using a narrative therapy approach, we help families explore patterns, relationships, and challenges in ways that honour each person’s perspective. Together, we uncover strengths, values, and preferred ways of relating, supporting growth, connection, and positive change within the family system.
At Coast to Coast Counselling, our chronic pain counselling provides a collaborative space to explore the emotional, social, and practical impacts of living with ongoing pain. Using a narrative therapy approach, we help clients separate themselves from the experience of pain, explore the stories that shape their wellbeing, and identify personal strengths, values, and strategies that support quality of life.
Neurodiversity Coaching for Parents
Workplace Wellbeing Program
Parenting through Neurodivergence Program
At Coast to Coast Counselling, our neurodiversity coaching is grounded in narrative therapy ideas that honour each person’s unique way of experiencing the world. We recognise that neurodivergence is not a problem to be fixed, but a story to be understood, valued, and supported. Through collaborative conversations, we explore personal strengths, preferences, and ways of thriving—supporting you to build confidence, self-understanding, and meaningful connections in the contexts that matter most to you.
At Coast to Coast Counselling, our workplace wellbeing programs take a narrative therapy–informed approach to support employees, teams, and organisations. We recognise that every workplace has its own culture, stories, and challenges. Through collaborative workshops, coaching, and support sessions, we help employees explore their experiences, build resilience, and identify strengths and strategies that enhance wellbeing, engagement, and collaboration.
Our Parenting Through Neurodivergence Program is designed for parents and carers, and meets NDIS Parent Capacity Building criteria. Using a narrative therapy approach, we provide a collaborative and strengths-based space where parents can explore their experiences, reflect on family stories, and develop strategies to support their child’s behaviour, wellbeing, and growth. The program focuses on nurturing both the child’s strengths and the parent’s confidence, helping families build positive routines, relationships, and coping skills.
