Alejandra Danta, BACP

Alejandra Danta is a counsellor who aims to help people untangle painful patterns and improve everyday thoughts and habits. She works in English and Spanish and supports people facing addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and intimacy-related concerns. She brings a calm, straightforward style and focuses on what matters most to each person.

She uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. That can include cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change unhelpful thoughts, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to clarify values, and attachment-based ways to look at close relationships. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is also part of her toolkit for people who want to process traumatic memories.

With three years of experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she shapes sessions around everyday life and practical steps. Conversations aim to identify small changes that make a difference over time. The work often covers issues such as abandonment, communication problems, codependency and caregiving stress.

Sessions tend to be collaborative and paced to the individual. Alejandra emphasises a supportive working relationship where people set the agenda and priorities. She encourages clear goals and regular review so progress is visible.

People can expect a warm, non-judgemental space to talk through anger, intimacy struggles, addiction concerns or the fallout from trauma. The focus is on practical habits, day-to-day thinking and building more helpful ways of coping.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It is useful for worries, low mood and persistent habits that get in the way of daily life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing different behaviours so daily routines and mood can improve. It is commonly used for anxiety, anger and habit change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help people improve communication and emotional closeness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful based on needs, goals and personal preference. Plans are reviewed and adjusted over time so the approach fits the person rather than the other way around.

Please confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also gives people more choice over when and how to meet, which can help maintain progress between sessions.
