Alexandra Lopez de Haro

Alexandra Lopez de Haro is a licensed mental health counselor with 13 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing trauma and abuse, depression, anger, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Alexandra speaks English and Spanish and offers services to clients in Hawaii and internationally.

Her work is practical and person-focused. She listens for what matters most and helps people build coping skills they can use day to day. Sessions often center on improving emotional regulation, repairing attachment patterns, and reducing shame and isolation.

Alexandra emphasizes collaboration. She supports clients as they set goals, try new ways of relating, and practice skills between sessions. That might mean learning grounding tools for trauma, structured problem-solving for life changes, or communication techniques to reduce conflict.

She also pays attention to cultural and identity factors that shape each person’s experience. Issues like immigration, gender identity concerns, and multicultural stressors are treated as part of the whole person rather than separate problems.

Clients can expect a steady, respectful approach that focuses on small, measurable change. The therapist aims to help people rebuild their sense of purpose, strengthen connections, and manage emotions more effectively.

Approaches that guide online work and healing

Alexandra commonly uses evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness-based practices. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which can help with depression, anxiety, and problem-solving. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and grounding skills that reduce reactivity and improve emotional awareness.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist works with each person to choose methods that match their goals, life situation, and comfort level. That means checking in as work progresses and adjusting techniques when needed so the plan stays useful and realistic.

For practical matters, confirm the session formats offered before booking since formats were not specified in the original profile. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, allow sessions during work breaks, or avoid travel time. It can also let a person continue care when they relocate or when meeting in person is difficult. Licensed professionals tailor the pace and tools to each person, aiming for steady progress and skills that transfer into everyday life.
