Alexandra Degirolamo, LPC

Alexandra Degirolamo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and addictions while supporting improvements in self-esteem and motivation. Alexandra emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every conversation.

She works with concerns such as depression, grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and relationship struggles. Parenting pressures, career transitions, anger, and coping with life changes are also areas she addresses. Additional focuses include ADHD, body image, codependency, and substance-related problems.

In sessions she adapts the dialogue and plan to each person's needs. That means straightforward goal-setting, practical coping strategies, and regular check-ins on progress. Her approach is collaborative and aims to help people develop clearer choices and more stable routines.

Alexandra supports people dealing with complicated feelings like guilt, shame, emptiness, and dissociation. She also helps with behaviors such as impulsivity, hoarding, and eating-related concerns. Her work often involves sorting through family problems and communication patterns to reduce conflict and increase understanding.

Clients can expect a calm, nonjudgmental conversation focused on small, doable steps. She frames therapy as a process that requires courage and offers steady support while people practice new skills. Alexandra helps people move from feeling stuck toward clearer priorities and more manageable daily life.

Approach and online therapy that fits your life

Alexandra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common technique emphasizes building coping skills and routines to reduce anxiety and stress; this involves learning brief exercises and new daily habits that lower overwhelm. Another common focus is working through addictive behaviors and impulsivity by identifying triggers, planning alternative responses, and practicing relapse prevention strategies.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they try methods, adjust the plan, and track small gains so the work fits real life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, cut travel time, and use shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can also offer flexible scheduling to accommodate work or family demands and help maintain momentum between sessions.
