About Raquel

Raquel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting, trauma and abuse, addiction, and ADHD. Sessions address everyday pressures at home as well as longer-term emotional struggles.

Her style centers on listening without judgment and helping people describe what matters to them. She uses clear, practical tools rather than jargon. Clients can expect conversational sessions that include goal-setting and skill-building for coping with mood, anger, or relationship strain.

Raquel draws on client-centered methods to prioritize the person’s perspective. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and change patterns that keep problems going. Solution-focused methods are used to set concrete steps and track progress between meetings.

She has worked with people dealing with sexual assault and abuse, postpartum depression, self-harm, process addictions, infidelity, and trauma related to the criminal justice system. Raquel also helps with parenting stress, concerns about attachment, and the emotional fallout of life changes such as pregnancy and childbirth.

Sessions aim to combine practical strategies with straightforward conversation. People who want a therapist who will listen, offer behavioral tools, and help plan next steps may find this approach useful.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and priorities. Online sessions using this approach emphasize listening, reflection, and building a session agenda from what matters most to the client. This can help with parenting strain, relationship concerns, and coping with stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. In remote sessions CBT is often practical and homework-oriented, with simple exercises to try between meetings to reduce anxiety, shift mood, or change unhelpful patterns.

Solution-Focused Therapy is short-term and action-oriented. It zeroes in on small, achievable steps and measures progress. That can be useful when the goal is to manage specific family stresses or create clearer routines at home.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. She will review what helps and adjust plans as sessions progress.

Session formats should be confirmed before booking. Verify which options are available at the time you schedule. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits around parenting and work commitments.
