About Donna Clarke,
LCPC, NCC, BC-TMH, CIMHP, CCTP-II, CGP, C-DBT
Hello! And welcome to Integrative Pathways Counseling, LLC.
As a strengths based, integrative therapist, I believe the journey surrounding mental health is uniquely individual, and deeply personal. It is truly an honor to walk with each and every client, from a place of curiosity and compassion, as they progress in their journey.
I bring empathy, trust, understanding, humor, [and lots of tools and strategies!] to each client experience.
I work with clients as they navigate anxiety, grief, loss, trauma, depression, complicated relationships with food, as well as family/system conflict and estrangement.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). I am a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Board Certified Telemental Health Provider (BC-TMH). I am a Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional [CIMHP]. I am certified as a Clinically Trained Trauma Professional: Level II C-PTSD (CCTP-II), and I am also a Certified Grief Professional (CGP). Additionally, I am certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy [C-DBT]. I am trained in Cognitive Processing (CPT).
I hold a certificate in Animal Assisted Therapy Training, and utilize applications of various animal assistive therapeutic techniques as an adjunctive therapy, where appropriate. I am a published author, have contributed to numerous books regarding Animal Assisted Therapy and the Human-Animal bond, and have also lectured and designed coursework at the graduate level to further the education, capability, and awareness of the use of animal assisted techniques in both therapeutic and non-therapeutic environments.
​
I look forward to walking with you in your journey toward inner balance, self-awareness and understanding, acceptance, and serenity.

Why Integrative Pathways Counseling, LLC?
My Philosophy
As a strengths based, integrative provider, I believe we are all unique and amazing humans! It is an honor to walk with clients, as they grow toward increased self-understanding, presence, inner harmony, self-awareness, insight, and compassion.
Individual Therapy:
In times of struggle, it can often be helpful to process one's inner thoughts and feelings, toward embracing strengths and validation, as well as finding hope and meaning.
Couples Therapy:
When seeking connection, it is often helpful to examine tools and strategies toward increased communication with our partner to feel heard, and validated, from a place of curiosity, clarification, and respect.
Grief
Grief is a uniquely individual experience, whether the journey relates to the loss of a loved one, a pet, a marriage, a job, or family member estrangement. It is often helpful to process and provide testimony to the experience of loss, toward finding meaning.
Anxiety
Anxiety can oftentimes feel debilitating, from intrusive thoughts to worry, to irritability, restlessness, and even sleeplessness. Therapy can help with building a toolbox toward awareness and reduction of triggers, and increased presence.
Trauma
Trauma symptomology can seem like it is the driver of our everyday. With tools and strategies, one can find increased awareness regarding triggers and stressors which impact us, and learn to navigate from a a lens of presence, clarity, self-compassion and understanding.
