About Magdalena

Magdalena Lopez is an Arizona Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of experience. She helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or struggling with grief, trauma, self-esteem, anger, intimacy concerns, LGBT issues, ADHD, and major life changes. Magdalena encourages practical steps and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

She uses a collaborative, person-focused style. Sessions begin with listening to what matters most to the client. Magdalena tailors conversations and goals to each person's needs and values. She invites people to bring a journal to sessions to track thoughts and notice patterns between meetings.

Her approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). That means she balances empathic listening with tools to reframe unhelpful thoughts and take meaningful actions. Sessions often focus on small changes that add up over time.

Magdalena aims to help people practice self-acceptance and connect with a sense of common humanity. She works with clients to reframe beliefs and try new behaviors that reflect their priorities. The emphasis is on working together as a team to create realistic steps toward the life someone wants.

If you are thinking about therapy, Magdalena guides the initial steps and helps set achievable goals. Her practice is based in Arizona and she offers services in English.

How these approaches guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and understanding each person without judgment. The therapist follows the client's lead and builds a plan from what matters to that person, which can help with stress, grief, and relationship concerns.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and make choices that align with their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions by focusing on what matters rather than getting stuck in difficult thoughts.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thought patterns that maintain distress and testing new behaviors. It offers practical exercises and small steps to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and improve mood.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Magdalena will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and adjust methods over time. The process is collaborative and paced to the person's comfort.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, require less travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists and licensed professionals can help arrange sessions that match your routine and goals.
