Better than you imagined. Sooner than you expected.

Feel better sooner than you think. Results that will genuinely surprise you.

You don't have to keep carrying this on your own

If something significant is weighing on you – a difficult relationship, a loss, a fear, a big decision, or simply the feeling that you’re running on empty – you’re in the right place.

I’m Donna Garratty, founder of Sea Change Therapy & Coaching. I help people who are struggling to think straight, struggling to cope, or struggling to move forward. Using a combination of coaching and fast, effective therapeutic techniques, I help you calm the noise, clear the fog, and get back to feeling like yourself again.

Most of my clients are surprised by how quickly things shift.

You might be dealing with…

People come to me with all kinds of things. Some are going through a difficult or painful relationship or breakup. Some are processing grief or loss. Some have a fear or phobia that’s getting in the way of their life. Some are overwhelmed by stress or burnout, or facing a major decision they can’t seem to make.

What they have in common is this: they’re still getting on with things, but something is making it harder than it should be. Emotionally, they’re carrying more than feels manageable.

That’s exactly where I can help.

How I work

My approach is straightforward, practical, and focused on getting you results – not keeping you in a process indefinitely.

I combine professional coaching with two highly effective therapeutic techniques: Advanced Thought Field Therapy (TFT-Adv) and HeartMath Coaching. These aren’t talking therapies. They’re fast, evidence-informed approaches that work directly with your emotional and nervous system – which means you often feel a noticeable difference much sooner than you might expect.

We work through four clear stages:

Calm

Settle your system so you can think straight

Clear

Work through what's driving the emotional pressure

Build

Strengthen your emotional resilience and confidence

Move forward

Make decisions and take action from a steady, clear place

About Donna

I’ve been working with people through some of the hardest moments of their lives for many years. I have more than 2,400 hours of coaching and therapy experience, and I’ve founded six businesses – so I understand both the personal and the professional pressures that life can throw at you.

I’m not here to give you a formula or tell you how you should feel. I’m here to help you get from where you are now to somewhere that feels significantly better – and to do it in a way that’s grounded, practical, and genuinely effective.

Change that surprises people

I arrived overwhelmed and convinced nothing would help. Within two sessions the constant noise in my head had genuinely quietened. I felt like myself again — I still can’t quite believe how quickly it shifted.

came to Donna during a period of burnout

After my divorce I felt completely stuck. Donna didn’t tell me what to do — she helped me clear the fog so I could finally think straight and make my own decision. Calm, practical, and kind.

worked with Donna through a difficult divorce

My fear of flying had shaped my life for years. One focused piece of work with Donna and I flew to see my family without a second thought. Extraordinary.
