Alexandra Castellaccio, LCSW, is a New York-based licensed clinical social worker with 8 years of experience providing therapy to men and young adults across a range of settings in New York City. Her work has included supporting people from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and religions as they navigate major life transitions and manage concerns such as depression, anxiety, the effects of significant trauma, substance use, and legal involvement.
Alexandra prioritizes creating a nonjudgmental space where clients can feel comfortable, respected, and genuinely supported. She approaches each person with compassion and dignity while helping them move toward the version of themselves they want to become. Drawing on evidence-based therapeutic techniques, she incorporates trauma-informed care to understand how past experiences shape present-day reactions, motivational interviewing to strengthen readiness for change, and a strength-based perspective to build on existing abilities and resources. Through therapeutic support and psychoeducation, she aims to foster resilience, self-efficacy, and meaningful personal growth aligned with each client’s unique goals.
Alexandra looks forward to meeting clients where they are, learning their story, and supporting them as they work toward lasting, values-driven change.
Alexandra Castellaccio uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients build practical skills and momentum toward change. Trauma-informed care focuses on how past experiences can shape emotions, coping patterns, and relationships, and it can be especially helpful for people working through trauma and abuse, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused approach that helps clarify what matters most and strengthen follow-through, often supporting concerns like addictions, anger, or major life changes. A strength-based perspective highlights existing resilience and capabilities, helping clients identify what is already working and how to build on it during stressful periods.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alexandra collaborates with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailors sessions accordingly, adjusting strategies as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy offers flexibility without losing structure or support. Clients can meet through video calls or phone sessions, and can also use live chat or text-based messaging for added continuity between sessions. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, stay engaged during transitions, and access support in a way that feels comfortable and sustainable.
