About Alejandra
Alejandra Danta is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with adults on issues such as addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns and anger. Sessions are available in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
Alejandra uses a mix of approaches in her work, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-focused ideas, Client-Centred methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and EMDR. She focuses on helping people spot patterns that keep causing the same problems and on practical steps to change them. Conversations look at feelings, behaviour and how past experiences shape current reactions.
Her background includes clinical work around substance dependence and trauma related care. That experience informs how she helps someone manage strong emotions, rebuild trust, and address difficulties with closeness or commitment. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, body image and communication problems.
Alejandra aims to work collaboratively so people set their own goals and priorities. Sessions often include talking through recent situations, learning new ways to respond, and practising small changes between meetings. Progress is checked together and plans are adjusted when needed.
People who are starting out in adulthood and facing changes such as leaving home, finding work, or managing early relationships may find her approach relevant. She offers sessions in English and Spanish and asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before arranging a first appointment.
How her approaches translate to online work
Alejandra uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and focus on actions that match their values. This approach can be useful for anxiety, decisions about relationships, and motivation problems. She also uses Attachment-based ideas to look at how earlier relationships affect current trust and closeness, which can help with intimacy and commitment issues.Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist and client review what is most helpful as they go, trying techniques and adjusting the plan based on what the client prefers and what feels useful for their goals.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around study or work, cutting travel time, and making shorter check-ins easier to arrange. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions help them keep therapy consistent while managing everyday commitments.
