Alejandra Danta, BACP

Alejandra Danta is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns and anger. She speaks English and Spanish and uses a collaborative, person-focused style to help people clarify what matters to them and set manageable steps forward.

Alejandra has three years of experience and holds BACP registration. She combines several therapeutic approaches to meet people where they are. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, building practical skills, and addressing painful memories when needed.

Her work often looks at attachment and relationship dynamics that affect trust and communication. She uses techniques from acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy to help with troubling thoughts and avoidance. For people with a history of trauma, she can integrate trauma-focused methods to process distressing memories.

Alejandra aims to create a calm and supportive atmosphere in sessions. Conversations are guided by the client’s priorities and paced to what feels manageable. She encourages small experiments between sessions to test new ways of relating and coping.

Many clients come to her concerned about life changes, long-standing patterns, or the effects of addiction and loss. She helps people name what they are dealing with and build clearer steps toward the life they want. If you prefer Spanish, she can work in that language as well.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for life changes, anxiety and patterns that feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and teaches practical skills to break unhelpful cycles. It works well for low mood, anxiety and managing addictive urges. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current connections and trust, and it helps people repair or rethink how they relate to others.

Choosing the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together you can try one direction and adjust based on what fits and feels useful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or busy schedules by reducing travel time and making shorter check-ins possible. It also allows people to access a therapist who speaks English or Spanish even if they live elsewhere; confirm current session formats before booking to be sure which options are offered. The focus remains on practical tools, processing difficult memories when needed, and setting manageable steps that fit everyday life.
