She was the art therapist teacher, who I only saw once.  That class gave me the worst anxiety I've ever experienced in my life.  This class was for people with anxiety, and she put people on the spot in bad ways and the class itself made no sense.  One thing that I found odd, too, is that she asked the group to write down our pronouns were and display them.  One person wrote "they" as their pronoun and Donna kept calling her "she", even though it was printed right in front of her.  She also said we didn't need to show our work if we didn't want to, but never gave us the option to make that choice, because she went up and grabbed our work to show the class and have everyone discuss what we drew without our permission.  She also favored the good artists over the bad ones, even though she said at the beginning, this was not about making good art.  I felt like I was in grade school art class again and I felt it was not a safe space for actually mentally ill people, nor for anyone different from the norm.  It was horrible.  I never went back.  

I only ever saw her once in person.

Donna has a lot of experience and goes out of her way to help her patients in many ways. She has helped me learn a lot about myself, thinking more logically, how to handle emotions, and more. Donna works well with adults including those who are neurodivergent or LGBTQIA+ and also teaches an extremely fun and helpful art therapy class. I have had many counselors in my life and she is one of the best and truly cares about each person she works with.

In person.
