About Alejandra

Alejandra Danta is a counsellor who aims to help people facing relationship strain and difficult emotions. She speaks English and Spanish and works with issues such as addiction, trauma, anger, intimacy concerns and general relationship difficulties. Her approach is practical and down to earth, aimed at helping clients feel less stuck and more able to make choices that suit their life.

Alejandra uses a blend of approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape present worries about closeness and trust.

EMDR is also among the methods she includes for processing traumatic memories when that is appropriate. Sessions focus on clear steps and small changes rather than jargon, with the client deciding the pace. Alejandra aims to create a calm space where people can talk through painful topics and build coping tools.

With three years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she brings a supportive and collaborative style. She helps people working through abandonment, communication problems, codependency, commitment worries and many related concerns. Practical, compassionate help is central to her work.

If you want to start, think about what matters most to you and what you hope to change. That helps guide the first conversations and sets clear goals for the work ahead.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Alejandra commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take small, meaningful actions even when feelings are difficult. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing behaviours that match what matters to the person, which can help with relationship stress and jealousy.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early connections affect current trust and closeness. That work involves talking through relationship patterns and practising new ways of asking for connection and boundaries.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can be reviewed as the work progresses so the plan stays relevant.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to schedule sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins on busy days. It also lets people work from a quieter place when that helps them focus without needing to be on camera for the whole time.
