About Donna

Donna Riveron is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with six years of direct clinical work. She helps people manage issues such as addictions, grief and loss, low self-esteem, career stress, anger, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and sleep problems.

Her style is straightforward and practical. She adapts conversations and plans to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on clear steps people can take between meetings as well as what comes up during sessions.

Donna has additional experience addressing relationship and communication problems, workplace issues, and challenges around life changes like divorce or loss. She also works with concerns such as post-traumatic stress, forgiveness, first responder issues, money stress, and the needs of young adults.

Before clinical work she spent seven years as a clinical supervisor, which adds to her experience guiding treatment and practice. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and sets concrete goals you can measure over time.

People who come for anger concerns often talk about snapping at loved ones, built-up resentment, frustration at work, or being triggered by someone else’s anger. Donna helps people identify the patterns that keep anger cycling and practices skills to respond differently in the moment.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Donna uses evidence-based techniques that focus on skills and concrete change. One common approach emphasizes practical skill-building for emotion regulation and stress management. This involves learning short tools to notice triggers, slow reactions, and practice alternative responses useful for anger, anxiety, and sleep troubles. Another approach centers on problem-focused work for life transitions, career stress, and relationship communication. It breaks issues into manageable steps and helps set measurable goals to try between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Donna works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in and adjusts methods so the work stays useful and relevant over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten routine check-ins, avoid travel time, or use a phone call instead of video when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Many people find online sessions help them practice skills in real life between meetings and keep momentum on goals.
