Psychology

Leaving the world a better place than we found it, one person at a time!

Eudaimonia Psychology® utilizes the methods and tools of Positive Psychology, in order to live in a state of “well-being”. It’s the understanding that if you change your thoughts you will change your life. Through the process you will come to the understanding that life’s challenges will consistently come into your experience, and no matter how painful they may be, it is up to each individual to take 100% responsibility for where they are in life, and own the decisions they have made. It’s about practicing a state of well-being in which one does not pursue happiness, one exists in it – and accepts unpleasantness as a necessary developmental stage for growth. This does not mean that you won’t feel pain. It means that you’ll have the tools to manage the pain, and understand the necessity of negative emotions – learning how to walk alongside them, without fear of failure and demise. Eudaimonia Psychology® provides each and every one of us the ability to #DecideAndThrive.

 

 

Eudaimonia®
Introductory Session

My “Introduction to Eudaimonia® Therapy” introduces the seeker to initial tools and methods of Eudaimonia® Psychology that I have found to be so effective in getting clients to their place of “calm.” Anyone can learn these tools and methods and begin living by intention rather than reaction, regardless of what life throws your way.

If you’re looking to walk alongside fear, rather than being paralyzed by it; understand that your wounded inner child serves you by providing you with self-awareness; and develop tools to rise above circumstances that hold you emotionally hostage, thus creating your best life, the life you desire and deserve, then join me today as I introduce you to Eudaimonia® Therapy.

Does Dr. Donna D offer couples therapy?

Yes, Dr. Donna D offers couples therapy. Her couples program works in four session cycles. To begin, she will meet with the couple for one 90-minute session. This is followed by a one-hour session with each partner, separately. The fourth session consists of a 90-minute session with the couple. From there, the sessions move forward in cycles of four sessions, until both parties are confident that they have acquired the tools and skills needed to successfully continue on their path to a healthy, safe, loving, and intimate relationship.

How long does it take before I begin to feel better?

It is difficult to predict the length of time each individual needs to work through their issues. However, most of Dr. Donna D’s patients consistently report that they feel better after the first initial visit. Dr. Donna’s therapy is based in Positive Psychology, which works with methods and tools that build upon what’s going right in your life. Most clients are in a much better place within the first couple of sessions and choose to stay in therapy for four to six months, depending upon  individual needs and goals.

Can I reschedule, or cancel my session?

You can reschedule your appointment with Dr. Donna D, without penalty, no less than 24 hours prior to your appointment. Any appointments canceled less than 24 hours prior to the appointment are nonrefundable.
