About Alexandra
Alexandra Lopez de Haro is an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Hawaii with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on trauma and abuse, depression, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She works in English and Spanish and accepts international clients.
Her approach centers on clear, practical work. She helps people name the problems that feel overwhelming and develop specific steps to manage them. Sessions typically include talking through recent struggles, learning coping skills, and practicing ways to approach difficult situations differently.
Alexandra often addresses related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, and isolation. She also supports people dealing with body image, guilt and shame, immigration matters, and questions about gender identity. Her work pays attention to how cultural background shapes stress and relationships.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions, focusing on skills that can be used between meetings. This can include ways to reduce intense emotions, change unhelpful thought patterns, and try small behavioral shifts in daily life. The aim is steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.
Clients can expect straightforward feedback and collaborative planning. Alexandra helps set concrete goals and checks what is or isn’t working as therapy proceeds. Practical tools and short-term strategies are balanced with attention to deeper patterns that affect mood and relationships.
Approaches used in remote sessions
Evidence-based techniques are part of her work and are explained simply in sessions. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking. These tools help with low mood, self-criticism, and anxiety by offering practical steps to try day-to-day.Another common method is trauma-focused work that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their hold on current life. This often means pacing the work, using grounding skills, and developing ways to tolerate strong feelings while changing how memories are reacted to.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. Alexandra will discuss options, check how each method feels, and adjust plans based on the client’s goals and preferences. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Practical benefits of online work include easier scheduling and fitting sessions around routines. Online therapy can reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep regular meetings.
