Alejandra Danta offers calm, practical support for people facing addiction, relationship strain, trauma and issues with intimacy. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make sessions straightforward and focused. Her approach is warm and collaborative, helping clients feel heard and understood from the first conversation.
Alejandra is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has three years' experience and works with adults on a wide range of concerns including anger, abandonment, attachment difficulties and communication problems.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image, adoption and foster care questions, and the emotional effects of cancer. In therapy she mixes practical tools with talking work. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas to help people notice patterns and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.
She also offers work that includes Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing for people processing traumatic memories. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. Alejandra helps clients set clear goals and tries out manageable steps between sessions.
She focuses on small, concrete changes that add up over time. People who choose Alejandra can expect a friendly, non-judgemental space and straightforward guidance. She helps people clarify what matters to them and build coping strategies that fit their life.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Alejandra draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and decide on small actions that match their values. ACT is useful when someone feels stuck and wants clearer direction on what matters to them.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. This work helps people understand why they get triggered and how to form steadier ways of relating to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alejandra discusses options with each person and adapts methods to match their goals and comfort level. The choice of techniques is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions offer practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face discussion when that is helpful, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a lunch break. Live chat or text-based messaging suits short check-ins or people who find typing easier than speaking. These formats make it simpler to keep continuity of care across locations and schedules, while letting therapists and clients focus on steady, practical progress.
