About Alexandra

Alexandra Degirolamo, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey, has nine years of clinical experience. She helps people address stress, anxiety, addictions, self-esteem, depression, and relationship concerns using evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a practical conversational style.

She focuses on concrete problems such as coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD, grief, and intimacy-related issues. She also supports work on body image, codependency, communication problems, and parenting stresses. Sessions emphasize clear goals and steady progress rather than vague promises.

Her approach centers on respectful, sensitive dialogue. She adapts treatment plans to the specific needs and circumstances each person brings. That can mean short-term skill building for anxiety or longer work on trauma and abuse when needed.

Alexandra uses methods grounded in evidence to address addiction, eating and food-related concerns, and impulsivity. She helps people recognize patterns like control issues, dissociation, or hoarding and develop practical strategies to change them. Work can include improving communication and managing anger in daily life.

Clients can expect direct, manageable steps and clear discussion about goals. Alexandra encourages collaboration on treatment decisions and adjustments along the way. She accepts international clients and offers services in English.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Alexandra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address common problems. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and replacing them with practical alternatives to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Behavioral strategies concentrate on building routines, managing cravings, and practicing new skills to address addictions and impulsivity.

She also draws on trauma-informed practices that emphasize stabilizing symptoms, pacing work, and building coping skills for people affected by trauma, abuse, dissociation, or grief. These approaches help manage strong emotions and improve daily functioning rather than only discussing past events.

Deciding which method fits best is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges and then select or combine techniques. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into work or family schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so work continues between meetings.
