A safe space

Make sense of what’s going on

People often reach out when life feels unsettled, relationships are under strain, or things feel
overwhelming.

Our role is to meet you with care, experience, and thoughtful support, so you do not have to hold it all on your own.

No two minds are the same

Every person brings their own history, relationships, pressures, and way of making sense of things. What feels overwhelming for one person may feel very different for someone else, and the same goes for healing, reflection, and change. 

At Misso Psychology, we take the time to understand what is happening in your world and what kind of support will actually be helpful. Our work is thoughtful, collaborative, and shaped around the individual, couple, or family sitting in the room.

What we do differently

Misso Psychology brings together decades of experience across psychology, counselling, group work, supervision, and training. Our approach is grounded in real-world practice, evidence informed care, and a deep understanding of the complexity people can carry into therapy. 

Our work goes beyond quick fixes and a one-size-fits-all approach. We take the time to understand what is going on beneath the surface and offer support tailored to your needs. The aim is not just to talk, but to support meaningful change that feels relevant, practical, and lasting.

Our values

Our values shape the way we listen, respond, and work alongside the people who come to us. We value trust, respect, genuine human connection, and care that is tailored to the individual. We also believe in evidence informed practice, ongoing learning, and support that helps create safety, recovery, and meaningful change over time.

About Donna

Donna is a co-director, facilitator, and community development practitioner with more than three decades of experience working alongside individuals, families, and communities. As co-founder of Misso Psychology, she has helped shape a practice that values genuine connection, thoughtful reflection, and care that is both grounded and real. Donna’s work centres on creating spaces where people feel safe enough to be honest, curious, and open to change. Whether working with groups or in professional settings, she brings a steady, relational presence that encourages meaningful conversations and deeper understanding. Her background in community development informs her belief that growth occurs not only individually but also in relationship with others and within communities. Alongside Dave, Donna recognised the importance of extending this work beyond direct practice. She is also co-founder of The International Institute of Psychotherapy Training (IIPT), where she helps bring together mental health professionals from around the world to learn, connect, and share knowledge. The institute reflects her commitment to creating spaces where practitioners can continue to grow, think deeply, and feel supported in the work they do. Across both organisations, Donna’s focus remains the same: creating environments where people feel met, where learning is shared, and where meaningful, lasting change can take place.
