About Me
Professional Psychotherapy Services
My name is Donna Fowler, and I’m the founder of MindKind Psychotherapy & Counselling. I’m a Pre-Accredited Psychotherapist (IACP) working with children, adolescents, and adults. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and human. A space where you don’t have to perform, hold everything together, or explain yourself perfectly. A space where you can slow down, breathe, and explore what’s happening within you at a pace that feels manageable. My approach is grounded in evidence-based best practices and shaped by a deep respect for each person’s story and the belief that meaningful change becomes possible when we genuinely understand ourselves — the what, way, and why behind how we think, feel, and respond. ​Whether you’re seeking support for yourself or your child, I work with you to help you uncover what has been shaping your life beneath the surface. Together, we explore what feels difficult, what feels stuck, and what feels possible.
How I Work
My therapeutic approach is integrative and humanistic, drawing on trauma-informed practice, and an understanding of how early relationships and family dynamics shape our adult lives. I work with you and at your pace, creating a space where you can explore what feels difficult, confusing or overwhelming, without pressure or judgement.
I integrate different approaches depending on what you’re dealing with and your comfort level.
I practice:
-
Person-Centred Therapy - space to talk openly without judgment
-
Psychodynamic Therapy - understanding patterns and past experiences
-
CBT - practical tools for thoughts, feelings, and actions
-
Shadow-Self / Inner Critic work - understanding self-doubt and old messages
-
Choice/Reality Therapy - focusing on what you can control
-
Creative Therapy for adults - expressive tools when talking isn’t enough
-
Play-Based Therapy for children - age-appropriate expression
-
Mindfulness Therapy - slowing down and responding rather than reacting
