Alejandra Danta

Alejandra Danta is a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing addictions, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and anger. She speaks English and Spanish and works with people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Alejandra holds BACP accreditation and brings three years of practice to her work.

Alejandra uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred ways of working, plus EMDR for people affected by traumatic memories. Sessions are aimed at finding patterns that get in the way and building practical steps to move forward.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She focuses on listening, helping clients name difficult feelings, and shaping goals that fit daily life. Conversations can cover grief, life changes, codependency, communication problems and care-related stress.

Alejandra also addresses less talked-about concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, ageing and geriatric matters, chronic pain and long-term illness, and neurodiversity like autism and Asperger Syndrome. She works with people who are dealing with personality-related patterns such as avoidant or antisocial tendencies.

People can expect practical techniques alongside space to reflect. Alejandra aims to help clients rebuild trust in relationships, manage urges linked to substance use, process traumatic memories, and regain control over anger and intimacy struggles.

Approaches you can use in online therapy

Alejandra draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose values-based actions rather than getting stuck in avoidance. This approach can support work on addiction, anxiety and life transitions.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This can help with intimacy problems, trust issues and communication struggles in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and past experience and then suggest which methods to try. Clients and therapist decide together whether to focus on skills practice, memory processing, or gentler reflective work.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and to maintain continuity when travel or other commitments arise. They can also allow shorter check-ins or flexible timing that suit work or caregiving routines. Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled and delivered.
