Education
Fordham University — Alexandra earned a M.S.E. (Master of Science in Education) in Mental Health Counseling from Fordham University. This program has a practitioner-scientist orientation and includes a strong multicultural and social justice counseling emphasis. During her time at Fordham University, Alexandra was a Psychology Research Assistant under the supervision of Dr. Fran Blumberg. When working with Dr. Fran Blumberg, Alexandra assisted in research concerning the development of children's attention and problem solving skills in the context of informal and formal digital learning settings. In addition to research, Alexandra worked as an active member of Student Association for Mental Health Counseling (SAM) to offer assistance to the students, as well as be a bridge between the students and the faculty. Alexandra acted as Chair of Clinical Internship Process and worked closely with her graduate program’s internship coordinators to improve the internship search process and plan related events.
Work HistoryBefore private practice, I worked with the child welfare system, supporting children, teens, and families facing housing instability, mental illness, domestic violence, and trauma. In private practice, I discovered my passion for neurodiversity, specializing in neurodevelopmental disorders. I also support clients with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, personality disorders, and stressors related to abuse, life transitions, family conflict, and self-esteem. I’m committed to your therapy success by using an eclectic approach with principles from person-centered therapy (PCT), CBT, DBT, and MBT. I focus on addressing maladaptive behaviors, habits, and beliefs that block peaceful living. My passion lies in helping individuals increase self-awareness, achieve balance, and spark positive change for a more fulfilling life.
