About Alejandra
Alejandra Danta is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing trauma, relationship strains, addiction and anger. She speaks English and Spanish and works with clients from different countries. Her approach aims to make the first steps feel manageable and clear for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.
Alejandra blends evidence-based methods to match what each person needs. She uses eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) alongside cognitive and acceptance-based tools to address strong emotional memories and ongoing patterns.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical skills and on understanding how past experiences shape present reactions. She follows a client-centred way of working, which means the person’s priorities steer the work. Together they set goals, try small changes and review what helps.
Alejandra places value on steady progress rather than quick fixes. Her background includes three years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. That experience includes supporting people with attachment concerns, abandonment issues, body image and long-term health challenges among other areas.
Sessions can use a mix of talking, exercises and processing techniques that suit the individual. Alejandra aims to create an empathetic space where people can talk through painful memories, improve communication and build more manageable ways of coping.

Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Alejandra uses EMDR to help process distressing memories and reduce the hold those memories have on daily life. In online sessions this work is adapted to the format and paired with preparatory exercises so people feel ready for memory processing.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most. ACT is useful for issues like anxiety, chronic health challenges and patterns that get in the way of relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that suit their goals and comfort level. That means checking in, trying an approach, and changing course if something is not helpful.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for in-depth sessions and EMDR-style work, phone calls can fit a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth needs, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
