About Alexandra
Alexandra Degirolamo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, and anger. She also helps people facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, grief, and major life changes.
Her approach is practical and person-focused. Conversations are used to identify patterns that fuel anger and frustration. She helps people notice triggers, try new responses, and build better habits for daily life. Sessions are straightforward and action-oriented when that fits the client's needs.
Alexandra has supported people managing substance issues, eating-related struggles, and impulsive behaviors. She also addresses family problems, communication breakdowns, and the weight of guilt or shame. For people with mood challenges such as depression or bipolar disorder, she works on skills to handle ups and downs and to stabilize routines.
When trauma or dissociation is present, Alexandra takes a careful pace. She helps clients build safety in how they cope, then moves toward addressing painful memories or patterns. She includes work on intimacy issues and parenting stress when these are part of a client's concerns.
Her style combines evidence-based techniques with practical problem solving. Clients can expect clear goals, concrete steps between sessions, and check-ins on what is or isn’t working. To begin, clients complete an initial matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Many of the methods Alexandra uses come from established, evidence-based approaches. Cognitive methods focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts that escalate anger or anxiety and testing more balanced ways of thinking. Skill-based or behavioral approaches teach concrete actions and routines to reduce impulsive responses and manage cravings or mood swings.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Alexandra works with each person to match methods to their goals and daily life. She checks what helps, adjusts the plan, and sets practical tasks to try between sessions so progress can be measured and refined.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Many people find online work helps them fit sessions into busy schedules, reduces travel time, and makes it easier to have shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require video, which can help on a hectic day. Discuss format preferences when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule your first session to make sure the setup fits your routine and goals.
