About Raquel

Raquel Lopez is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who brings 14 years of clinical experience to her practice in Colorado.

Background and approach

She centers her work on evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy while also drawing on client-centered and solution-focused ideas to help people address stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, and trauma-related issues. Her approach emphasizes collaborative goal-setting and practical tools that clients can use between sessions to manage symptoms and make measurable progress.

Known for a warm, motivational, and interactive style, she treats each person with respect and seeks to meet them where they are. Raquel tailors treatment plans to individual needs, combining structured interventions with empathic listening.

Her caseload has included issues such as mood disorders, postpartum depression, attachment and family problems, sexual assault and abuse, process and sex addictions, self-harm, anger, and concerns related to parenting, career, and life transitions.

She offers live and phone sessions with availability that can vary week to week, and she encourages prospective clients to reach out if initial time slots do not match their schedules.

Online Therapy with Practical, Goal-Oriented Approaches

Raquel commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered techniques to guide online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve coping, and it is often applied for anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, and stress-related concerns. Client-centered therapy emphasizes the person’s own resources and experience, offering empathic listening and support to help clients clarify goals and build self-directed solutions that feel authentic.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process; she will work with clients to explore which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they may combine structured skill-building with reflective, client-led conversation so the plan evolves based on what proves most helpful.

Online delivery uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility in how clients connect. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow continuity when in-person visits are difficult, and support different communication styles so people can choose the format that helps them engage most effectively.
