Marta Lopez Pizarro , BACP

Marta Lopez Pizarro is a fully qualified integrative counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with individual adults facing a range of concerns such as depression, stress, anxiety, trauma, illness, and relationship difficulties. She draws on an integrative relational-developmental stance that weaves together psychodynamic ideas, attachment theory, humanistic principles, and transactional analysis to understand how early experiences shape current patterns of feeling, thinking, and relating.

By attending to the internal processes formed in infancy and how they appear in the here and now, Marta helps clients explore how past adaptations influence present challenges. Her practice emphasizes compassionate, present-focused work that aims to open space for surprising shifts in perspective and behavior. Marta supports people coping with life changes, low self-esteem, communication problems, family issues, and a variety of cultural and health-related concerns, including chronic illness and cancer.

She offers a supportive environment for exploring identity, relationships, and meaning, and guides clients through practical and emotional coping strategies. Marta holds the BACP credential - membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and brings four years of clinical experience to her integrative practice, providing attentive, developmentally informed care in both English and Spanish.

Attachment-Informed and ACT Online Therapy

Marta uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate their actions, supporting movement toward values-based goals. This approach is often helpful for managing anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, which explores how early relational patterns influence current relationships and emotional responses. Working with attachment concerns can help people improve communication, reduce feelings of isolation, and build more secure connections with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Marta collaborates with each person to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques from different schools of thought as required, so clients and therapist shape the path together.

Online therapy with Marta is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists without needing to travel, allowing therapy to fit into busy or complex lives.
