About Donda

Donda Roach is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of experience in Oklahoma. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, self-esteem struggles, and problems with sleep and rest. Her style centers on practical steps and clear goals so people can see progress in day-to-day life.

Roach uses a client-centered approach that treats the person as the expert on their life. She also draws on solution-focused ideas and cognitive behavioral techniques to build skills that change unhelpful patterns. Sessions emphasize small, achievable steps that fit into a client’s routine.

Her work often supports people coping with major life changes, caregiving strain, blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care issues, and attachment or abandonment themes. She also addresses concerns like body image, communication and control issues, and challenges linked to aging or dependent personality patterns.

Donda focuses on building tools for coping with stressful events, recovering from loss, and improving sleep and daily functioning. She partners with clients to set realistic targets and practices that can be used between sessions. Her approach is straightforward and strength-based.

Clients can expect conversations that clarify what matters most to them, practical strategies they can try right away, and regular check-ins on progress. Donda’s aim is to help people turn difficult experiences into steady steps toward feeling better.

How Donda’s approaches translate to online therapy

Donda commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques that translate well to remote sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, clarifying what matters to the person, and supporting their choices; it helps people gain confidence and direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing new ways of thinking and acting; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and will adjust the plan as progress and needs change.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-in visits when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people try skill-building exercises and homework between meetings, and make regular follow-ups more practical for ongoing sleep or stress work.
