About Magdalena
Magdalena Lopez is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Arizona with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, grief, intimacy concerns, ADHD, LGBT-related issues, and major life changes. She speaks English and offers services within Arizona.
Magdalena approaches therapy in a collaborative, straightforward way. She focuses on self-acceptance and recognizing common human struggles while helping people reframe thoughts and beliefs. Sessions emphasize practical steps and actions people can take between meetings. She asks clients to bring a journal to sessions to track thoughts, reactions, and progress.
Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, and cognitive behavioral techniques. Those approaches are used to clarify values, notice unhelpful thinking patterns, and try different behaviors. Magdalena also notes experience supporting people through suicidality and recovery maintenance as part of her clinical scope.
She aims to create a clear plan together rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all approach. Treatment goals, pacing, and strategies are set collaboratively and adjusted as needed. Magdalena frames therapy as a team effort focused on moving toward the life a person wants.

How her approaches guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying what matters most. It is often used for anxiety, anger, and trouble making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve functioning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, reflection, and working at the client’s pace to explore values and goals.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. Magdalena will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts plans over time based on what is helpful and what the person wants to try next.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time from the equation. Working remotely also lets people use journaling and between-session exercises in the context of their everyday life. Licensed professionals and therapists often find online work supports consistent, practical progress when paired with clear action steps.
