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, including depression, stress, anxiety, trauma, illness, and relationship difficulties. She brings an integrative relational-developmental perspective that draws on psychodynamic ideas, attachment theory, humanistic principles, and transactional analysis to understand how early experiences shape current patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating.

Working with Marta involves exploring those internal processes in the here and now, with compassion and curiosity, to create opportunities for meaningful change. She emphasizes the ways childhood adaptations continue to influence self-perception and responses to challenge, and she supports clients in noticing and shifting those patterns. Marta is committed to offering a safe, empathic space where adults can examine past experiences and present difficulties without judgment.

She holds the BACP credential - a recognition from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and provides therapy in English and Spanish. With four years of clinical experience, Marta aims to guide people through current struggles and help them make practical and insightful shifts in their lives.

Integrative approaches and online therapy

Marta draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships influence current patterns of connection and emotional response. This approach helps people understand attachment styles and develop healthier ways of relating in adult life. She also uses Psychodynamic Therapy to examine unconscious patterns and early experiences that shape present thoughts and behaviors, offering space to reflect on the links between past and present. In addition, Client-Centered Therapy is central to her work, emphasizing empathy, unconditional positive regard, and collaboration to support clients in finding their own solutions and strengthening self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Marta works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the blend of techniques as the work evolves.

Online therapy with Marta is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for clients to access regular support from licensed professionals and therapists without travel, while keeping the focus on consistent, practical progress.
