About Marta
Marta Lopez Pizarro is a counsellor who uses a relational, integrative approach to help people facing depression, stress and anxiety. She combines several ways of working to make sessions feel safe and practical. She speaks English and Spanish and practices in the United Kingdom.
Marta focuses on how early relationships and life events shape current patterns. She blends psychodynamic ideas with attachment-focused work to look at recurring ways of thinking and relating.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to notice what happens between the client and counsellor, and use those observations to bring change. Her sessions also draw on client-centred principles, which put the person’s perspective at the centre of the work. This means listening for what matters most to the person and following their pace.
Somatic elements may be introduced to help people recognise how feelings show up in the body. Marta works with everyday problems like relationship strain, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with long-term illness, chronic pain, immigration stress, feelings of emptiness, and cultural or family origin issues.
The emphasis is on short, clear conversations about what is happening now and what the client wants to change. With four years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Marta aims to create a respectful space for steady progress.
She invites people to explore difficult memories and present difficulties in ways that can shift how they live day to day.

Online support
These approaches are used together with a client-centred attitude, where the counsellor follows the person’s lead and listens for what matters most. Marta will work collaboratively to find which methods suit a person's needs and goals, checking in and adapting as the work progresses. The choice of approach is treated as part of the therapy rather than fixed from the start.
Online counselling offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, health needs or family life while keeping continuity of care with the same counsellor.
