About Donna Khan

Hi. Thank you for reading my profile. I am passionate about what I do and have been from the minute I graduated with my Bachelors and Masters degree in social work Wayne State University in 1994. I am based out of Detroit Michigan.

My goal has always been to provide help to those who need guidance, resources or just someone to listen. I work with individuals, couples and families. My practice has included inpatient medical social work and outpatient social work in a clinic setting. The approaches I use includes client centered therapy, strength focused therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solutions focused therapy and motivational enhancement.
My specialties include depression, stress and anxiety management, family conflict, relationship issues, grief and anger, women’s issues, coping with life and career changes, I have developed workable solutions for reoccurring issues and problems. I have guided clients in the development of skills and strategies to deal with what life throws at us.
Reaching out for help is the first step towards change. I treat all clients with respect and compassion. I strive to establish a positive therapeutic relationship that helps to motivate change at your own pace. I look forward to working with you.

“Donna has all but demolished my negative thinking. I have been struggling my whole life with invasive and toxic thoughts but through series of therapy appointments Donna has taught me how to challenge my negative thoughts and over time it has created a more positive outlook. I am grateful for the time I spent in my therapy appointments and will use Donna in the future ..”

“Donna has been very attentive and respectful, offering good, basic support and wisdom.”

“I'm so glad that I came across better help, they've been a godsend. Getting started was easy and the counsellor that was assigned to me was exactly what I was looking for. After trying several different options, some online, some in person trying to find the right fit, I was sceptical about trying yet another service. From the start, Donna was incredible and she's consistently there for me. She's always on time, always attentive, remembers what we've talked about in the past and provides me with practical advice to guide me though some challenging times. Like everyone, my life is incredibly busy and quite demanding. The availability and access is perfect, the video meetings are flawless. The reminders for the appointment times are appreciated and she even checks in with me to see how I'm doing if she doesn't hear from me. She keeps track of progression and how I'm doing over the long term. It never feels transactional. I feel supported and encouraged when I'm doing well and when things are bit tougher. Can't recommend this service enough to anyone who might be on the fence.”

“The ability for her to keep me on track when I squirrel myself all the time.”

“She is professional and knowledgeable.”

“Thanks Donna”

“Donna has been very helpful for my wife and I. She has helped us get back on the same page and communicate more effectively and understand each other better. She’s been great.”

“Thank you for the motivation and encouragement that you always tell me during our session. Its not everyday I encounter people who help and motivates a stranger in a heartful way I got from you.”

“Donna has been so amazing! She listens to everything and helps me through every little bit. I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone and really appreciate all she’s done for me. I can’t wait to chatting to her again upon my return someday”

“Donna has been extremely helpful for me. I wish I could explain it better, but I'd highly recommend her service and expertise.”

“Donna is really wonderful. Only one session with her but I can tell just from one session, she's a very caring and attentive therapist.”

“She is great!”

“She's great! She is able to help me with things that I didn't even know stressed me out.”

“I love BetterHelp! In a month I already feel like I have more tools to use than I started with. I love my therapist as well! She really understands me and has a lot of knowledge in her work!”

“I’ve had a great time so far and can’t wait to continue .”
