About Alex
Alex Lopez is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 15 years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, or the challenges of ADHD. He approaches each person with respect and simple, practical steps. He believes clients know their story best and aims to build on their strengths.
In sessions he focuses on clear goals and everyday skills. He uses methods that help people notice what matters, change unhelpful thoughts, and practice new behaviors.
Background and approach
Conversations are collaborative and paced to what the person needs that week. Alex draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and reduce avoidance. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought patterns that feed anxiety and low mood.
Attachment-based ideas inform how people relate to themselves and others. He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotional regulation or impulsivity is a concern, and a client-centered stance to keep the person’s priorities front and center. These approaches are mixed to fit the problem at hand rather than followed as rigid rules.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and include options like video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Alex accepts international clients and works with each person to choose a format that fits their schedule and needs.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and finding motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life actions to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. It works well for worry, low mood, and habit change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and can help when relationship patterns, abandonment fears, or trust issues cause distress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and try strategies that fit those needs. Together they will adjust methods and pacing so the work feels relevant and manageable.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people work face-to-face without travel, phone sessions require less internet bandwidth, live chat can fit quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel while still practicing skills and tracking progress.
