About Alejandra
Alejandra Danta is a counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are coping with trauma, addiction, relationship strain, anger and intimacy concerns. She speaks English and Spanish and brings three years of hands-on practice to each meeting.
Alejandra uses a blend of approaches to match what each person needs. She favours Trauma-Focused Therapy when past hurt keeps coming back. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas to help people notice patterns and choose different responses.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and conversational. People are invited to talk through painful memories, rebuild trust in relationships, learn new ways to manage strong feelings, or reduce reliance on substances. The emphasis is on small steps the person can try between sessions.
She describes her role as a compassionate collaborator rather than an expert who tells clients what to do. That means working together to set goals, test helpful tools, and adjust the plan as needed. The style is warm, direct and focused on what matters most to the client.
Alejandra accepts people from across countries and offers a range of online formats. She holds BACP as her listed credential and keeps sessions adaptable to a person’s daily life.

How Alejandra uses therapy approaches online
Alejandra commonly uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people process distressing memories and reduce their intensity. This approach looks at how past events affect day-to-day reactions and aims to help people feel less overwhelmed by those memories.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then taking action based on personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore patterns in relationships and to build healthier ways of connecting with others.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Alejandra treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what helps the person move forward.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy fit daily life. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suits brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options let people meet from different locations and fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
