Marta Lopez Pizarro, BACP

Marta Lopez Pizarro is a fully qualified integrative counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which indicates her recognized training and commitment to professional standards. Marta works with individual adults facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, stress, anxiety, trauma, illness and relationship difficulties. She draws on an integrative, relational-developmental framework that brings together psychodynamic ideas, attachment theory, humanistic principles and transactional analysis to tailor support to each person.

Her work is grounded in the view that early life experiences shape patterns of relating, self-perception and how people respond to challenge. By gently exploring these internal processes in the here and now, Marta aims to create space for new understanding and meaningful change. She offers a compassionate, curious presence and helps clients reflect on both current difficulties and past experiences that continue to affect their lives.

Marta’s practice focuses on creating opportunities for exploration and growth, supporting people who are seeking clearer direction, emotional relief or improved relationships. She combines warmth and clinical knowledge to guide clients through practical coping and deeper therapeutic work.

Approaches Marta Uses for Online Therapy

Marta uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them - the approach supports people to clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values, often useful for anxiety, stress and life changes. She also works with Attachment-Based Therapy, which explores early relational patterns and how they affect current relationships and emotional responses - this can help with attachment issues, relationship difficulties and feelings of isolation. In addition, Client-Centered Therapy provides a non-judgemental space where the client’s own experience leads the pace of work, offering gentle support for self-esteem, depression and navigating personal challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Marta collaborates with each person to identify which combination of methods best fits their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the focus as trust and insight grow. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy feels relevant and respectful of the client’s pace.

Online therapy with Marta is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexible ways to connect that fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy or changing circumstances and allow clients to access support from home or other convenient locations.
