Alejandra Danta, BACP

Alejandra Danta is a counsellor who helps people facing addiction, relationship strain, trauma, anger and intimacy concerns. She speaks English and Spanish and brings three years of professional experience to her work. People often come for help when patterns from the past are getting in the way of daily life.

Alejandra uses a blend of approaches to suit each person’s needs rather than one fixed method. Sessions focus on understanding what matters most to the client and learning practical ways to manage painful memories, strong emotions, or unhelpful behaviours. She aims for clear, down-to-earth conversations that lead to small, doable changes.

Her approach includes talking through attachment patterns and how they affect current relationships. She also uses therapies that look at thoughts and behaviours, and techniques for processing traumatic memories. This mix helps clients build new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Alejandra describes her role as collaborative and supportive. She works to create an empathetic space where people can explore difficult experiences without feeling judged. The focus is on what a client wants to change and the steps they are ready to take.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP, which appears after her name as BACP. Prospective clients are invited to consider what they want from therapy before starting a session.

How Alejandra’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts while committing to actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, substance use patterns and difficulties with motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current emotional responses; it can help people understand trust, closeness and communication struggles. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, works with disturbing memories by pairing guided processing with bilateral stimulation to reduce the intensity of traumatic recollections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alejandra will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative decision and can change as therapy progresses.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time so therapy is easier to attend. Online work can allow for shorter check-ins if that suits someone's schedule and can make it simpler to maintain continuity when life is unpredictable. The therapist biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can often adapt techniques like ACT, attachment-focused work and EMDR for remote settings when appropriate.
