Magdalena Lopez , LPC

Magdalena Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arizona with eight years of clinical experience. She works from a stance of self-acceptance and common humanity, meeting clients within their individual worldview and supporting growth across a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, anger, and identity-related challenges.

Her clinical scope includes care for suicidality and ongoing recovery maintenance, and she emphasizes collaboration when developing treatment plans. Magdalena tailors dialogue and interventions to each person’s goals, reframing thoughts and beliefs while encouraging practical steps toward meaningful change. She believes in people’s capacity to evolve and express themselves more freely as they make progress.

Magdalena frames therapy as a team effort - combining insight work with real-world action to help clients build the life they want. She often invites clients to use journaling as a tool for self-understanding and direction, recommending that they bring a journal to sessions to track patterns, reflect on progress, and clarify goals.

Warm and affirming, Magdalena supports clients from diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQ individuals, and attends to both immediate concerns and longer-term recovery strategies with a compassionate, strengths-based approach.
