Alexandra Degirolamo

Alexandra Degirolamo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey with nine years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, respectful presence and focuses on helping people take the first steps toward change. Alexandra works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and eating and food-related issues.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person's situation. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, along with talking through patterns that keep problems stuck. Alexandra pays attention to issues like body image, codependency, impulse control, and grief when those themes come up.

Her approach centers on listening first, then building a plan that fits the client's goals and rhythms. She aims to help people regain motivation, build confidence, and improve communication. This includes support for anger, commitment challenges, and stressors at work or home.

Alexandra also addresses trauma, dissociation, and compassion fatigue with care and sensitivity. She works with people managing bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and major life transitions to find strategies that make daily life more manageable.

People meet Alexandra in New Jersey and can discuss whether her style fits their needs during an initial match and scheduling step. She encourages questions about how therapy will look and what to expect before starting.

How evidence-based techniques guide online work

Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on changing unhelpful thoughts, building new habits, and practicing skills in daily life. Cognitive approaches break down overwhelming problems into smaller parts and help people test new ways of thinking, which can reduce anxiety and low mood. Behavioral strategies emphasize small, manageable experiments and routines to shift eating patterns, sleep, or activity levels that affect mood and wellbeing.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try different techniques when needed, and adjust plans together based on what feels helpful. Clients often decide on the best mix of strategies over a few sessions rather than all at once.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session formats available before booking, since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. It also lets people keep continuity of care if they move or travel across regions. Licensed professionals will discuss practical details so sessions can fit into your everyday life without assuming a particular setup.
