About me

My name is Alejandra Lopez.

For years I’ve pursued and dedicated my career as an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist with extensive experience in EMDR, hypnotherapy, as well as alcohol and substance dependence.
I specialise in many different areas, including individual, couple and family relationships to repair trust, improve communication, and strengthen emotional intimacy with each other.

Combining various therapeutic approaches, I make sure everyone’s unique needs are tailored to help uncover deeper insights and patterns that may be holding them back. I provide a comfortable, empathetic, and supportive environment, making sure clients are not alone in whatever it is they are going through.

A compassionate collaboration between client and therapist brings about a safe space for exploration and understanding.
Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction, life transitions, or a desire for self-discovery, our work together will prioritise what truly matters to you.

I believe meaningful changes are possible for everyone and I’m here to walk beside you toward healing. It’s my honour to share my services warmly and caringly to allow you to feel empowered on your growth journey.

Alejandra is very enthusiastic, pleasant to speak to, and genuinely cares about her work. Alejandra is patient, understanding, and adaptable. I'm only 2 sessions in but feel the weight lifting already due to her practice. Couldn't recommend enough.

I had specific doubts about the usefulness of online therapy for me, however after having lots of conversations with Alejandra my option changed completely. I strongly appreciate the deep knowledge she has about understanding the human brain, its motives and the reasons for why we subconsciously do the things we do, particularly the way she can simplify complex concepts and make them digestible. I now have a broader understanding of my own self due to her techniques and I have been able to reduce my anxiety and rumination thoughts a lot. I'm lucky to have been paired with her and I am happy to continue my exploration with her guidance.

I’ve learned so much about myself during my time talking Alejandra. She has helped me to not only overcome my addictions, but also to open up to the people around me with courage and strength. I’ve gained a very deep understanding of myself and I use the tools she has given me everyday. The road to recovery is long but in every way well worth it.

Alejandra has definitely been the best therapist I have had. She’s made me feel so safe, comfortable and secure in our sessions. She has cheered me on when I’ve been doing well, and is extremely kind and gentle with me when I am down. I have taken away so much valuable insight from our sessions so far and I am eager to continue this journey with her.

After going through a few therapists here on betterhelp, I'm glad to have found Alejandra. She she brings her complete focus to each session and after each session summarises with further insights and resources. I appreciate the empathy she always brings and how she keeps focused on what important, right from the very first session.
