Online Therapy Services in Ontario

Donna Cook, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist, offers online therapy services for adults in Ontario. Her areas of focus include individual counselling, EMDR therapy, women’s therapy, trauma-focused therapy, and wellness coaching.

Each client comes to therapy with different needs, goals, and lived experiences. This page can help you explore the types of support Donna offers and choose a starting point for your consultation.

There is no single “right” reason to begin therapy. Some clients start because they are feeling anxious, burned out, disconnected, or overwhelmed. Others want support with trauma, grief, self-worth, boundaries, relationships, caregiving, or life transitions.

Donna’s approach is compassionate, collaborative, and individualized. The goal is not to force you into a preset program. It is to understand what you are experiencing, what matters to you, and what kind of support may feel appropriate for your needs.

If you are unsure which service is the best fit, you can start with the area that feels closest to what you are carrying. The initial consultation can help clarify whether individual counselling, EMDR therapy, women’s therapy, trauma-focused therapy, or wellness coaching may be the most helpful starting point.

Online therapy can support many different concerns, but the best starting point depends on what you are hoping to understand, process, or change. Some services are broad and flexible, while others focus more specifically on trauma, distressing memories, women’s experiences, or wellness-related goals.

Donna works with clients across Ontario through virtual sessions. The Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario notes that virtual health care should involve consent, privacy safeguards, and a discussion of the risks and benefits of virtual care. Donna will review relevant details before beginning online sessions so you can make an informed choice.

Donna’s online therapy services may support clients who are navigating:

You do not need to know exactly which therapy service you need before contacting Donna. Many clients begin with a general concern, such as feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, self-critical, anxious, or unsure how to move forward.

Individual counselling may be a helpful starting point if you want broad one-on-one support. EMDR therapy may be discussed if distressing memories, triggers, or negative self-beliefs are central concerns. Trauma-focused therapy may be appropriate when difficult experiences continue to affect daily life. Women’s therapy may be a fit when you want support that makes space for women’s experiences, relationships, caregiving, identity, self-worth, or life transitions.

The consultation is designed to help you ask questions, talk about what you are hoping for, and decide whether Donna’s approach feels like the right fit.

Online therapy with Donna begins with fit, consent, and understanding your goals. Sessions are offered virtually for clients located in Ontario, allowing you to attend from a private space that works for you.

Depending on your needs, therapy may include reflection, emotional support, grounding strategies, self-compassion, boundaries, trauma-focused work, EMDR therapy, mindfulness-informed tools, or support around grief, relationships, self-worth, burnout, and life transitions.
