About Raquel
Raquel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 14 years of clinical experience. She focuses on anxiety and stress and helps people navigate depression, trauma, addictions, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Her style is warm, interactive, and motivational, and she aims to support people as they find practical next steps.
Raquel uses clear, practical tools in sessions. She draws on client-centered techniques to follow what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
She also uses cognitive behavioral methods to notice how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. Solution-focused work helps set small, achievable goals between sessions. Her background includes long-term work with people affected by sexual and physical trauma and by emotional abuse.
She has helped clients cope with self-harm thoughts, mood disorders, and stress related to life transitions. Raquel also works with concerns around parenting, ADHD, and process addictions such as gambling or problematic sexual behaviors. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented.
Raquel listens first, then helps people try practical strategies and track what changes. She keeps a light tone when it helps and holds firm support when tougher material comes up. Her approach centers on respect and on helping people build their own solutions.
People who prefer online options can connect by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Raquel asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to get started and to set goals for therapy.
Approaches that guide online sessions and practical care
Raquel combines client-centered listening with focused, skills-based work to help people manage anxiety and life changes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes understanding each person's priorities and following their lead in sessions. This approach helps when someone needs space to tell their story and set the direction for change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Raquel uses CBT to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new responses, which can be useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress. Solution-Focused Therapy zooms in on small, actionable steps that move a person toward their goals between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try strategies, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Raquel treats the methods as tools to be fitted to each person's needs rather than fixed rules.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick updates, brief coaching, or focusing on specific skills between longer sessions. These options offer flexibility for scheduling and fit different routines and daily demands.
