About Raquel
Raquel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 14 years of clinical experience. She works in a warm, straightforward way and focuses on practical steps parents and individuals can use to manage stress, anxiety, and changes in daily life. She supports people dealing with depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictive behaviors, and parenting challenges.
Her style is interactive and motivational. She listens first, then helps people set clear goals and small, doable steps.
Background and approach
Sessions often include talking through real situations, trying new ways of responding, and checking what works between meetings. She uses everyday language and keeps the tone approachable and sometimes light to make hard topics easier to discuss. Raquel combines client-centered care with cognitive-behavioral strategies and solution-focused methods.
That means she centers each session on the person in front of her, looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings, and concentrates on practical solutions that fit the client’s life. She adapts conversations to each person’s needs rather than following one set plan.
Her experience includes working with people affected by trauma and abuse, mood disorders, and a range of behavioral concerns such as process addictions and self-harm. She also helps those wrestling with parenting stress, postpartum challenges, and relationship strain. Raquel aims to help clients build skills they can use day to day.
Clients meet with Raquel by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. She practices in English and offers online sessions from Colorado. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps connect people to a schedule that fits them.

How Raquel Uses Therapy Methods Online
Raquel draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused approaches to make online counseling practical and action oriented. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs, helping people feel heard and guiding conversations where the client leads. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence feelings and uses clear strategies to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and parenting stress. Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on immediate goals and small steps that move people toward better days, making it useful for coping with life changes and specific problems.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different ways of working, and adjust plans based on what the client prefers and what proves helpful. Clients help set the pace and priorities so sessions stay relevant to their daily life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexible options for different situations. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit work breaks or low bandwidth, live chat allows shorter check-ins, and messaging supports brief reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent with busy schedules and changing needs.
