About Alejandra

Alejandra Danta helps people work on addictions, relationships, trauma and intimacy-related issues using practical therapeutic methods. She practises as a BACP counsellor and has three years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom.

Alejandra uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. Sessions focus on clear goals and on noticing patterns that keep problems going. She works in English and Spanish.

In the room she listens for what matters most and helps people try different ways of responding. Work can include looking at relationship patterns, managing anger, or developing strategies to reduce addictive behaviours. EMDR is offered as one of the methods for processing distress linked to trauma.

Her background includes practice with addiction and substance dependence and work with people affected by attachment and relationship difficulties. She also has experience addressing issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiving stress, chronic illness and body image concerns.

Alejandra aims to combine a clear therapy plan with open, client-led conversation. Sessions are practical and focused on small steps that fit into everyday life. To start, readers are advised to use the site matching process to arrange a first session.

How Alejandra uses therapeutic approaches online

Alejandra draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and decide on values-based actions. ACT is practical and can support work on addiction, relationship choices and persistent worry.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. This approach helps people understand why they react in close relationships and can be useful for intimacy and communication problems.

Finding the right method is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before, and then agree together which approach to try first. That decision is reviewed as work continues so the plan can change if needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, caregiving or travel, and they often reduce time spent travelling. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by phone when they need a brief update, while others find video sessions better for detailed therapeutic work.
