About Alejandra
Alejandra Danta, BACP, is a counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with people facing addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
Alejandra uses a mix of approaches to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and actions. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape trust and closeness.
Her background includes work with alcohol and substance dependence and with trauma-processing methods such as EMDR. In practice she talks through what is happening now, what feels stuck, and practical steps a person can try between sessions. People can expect clear, concrete suggestions and space to reflect on how those changes feel.
Alejandra says she pays attention to communication and emotional connection in relationships. That can mean focusing on how people talk to each other, on setting boundaries, or on managing anger without escalating conflict. She also supports people dealing with grief, life transitions, chronic illness and caregiver stress.
Sessions begin with a brief assessment of needs and goals. Alejandra asks about what has been tried before and about current stresses. From there she and the person agree on which approaches to use and what the next steps will be.
Approaches used in online sessions
Alejandra uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which encourages noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. ACT can be helpful for anxiety, avoidance and values-led change.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, a practical approach that looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses small experiments to test different responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, anger and relationship patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has been helpful or unhelpful before. Together they agree which methods to try and how to pace them.
Confirm the specific online session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. In general, online work can make fitting sessions around daily life easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also allow sessions without being on camera if that helps with concentration or comfort.
