You’re in the right place.
My name is Alessandra Fodera. As a dedicated psychotherapist, I am committed to providing a holistic and individualized approach to therapy, supporting clients across the lifespan. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), with a Bachelor of Science from Georgetown University and a Master of Social Work from New York University, offering virtual therapy for children, teens, young adults, and adults across New York State. I am deeply invested in and have specialized experience with addressing the emotional and psychological needs of individuals with medical issues including chronic pain and chronic illness.
In my practice, I draw from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), empowering individuals to challenge negative thought patterns and cultivate healthier coping strategies, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), guiding clients towards emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness.
My approach to therapy emphasizes the importance of tailoring treatment plans to suit each individual's unique needs, ensuring that they feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout their journey. Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or personal growth, I am here to walk alongside you on your path towards healing.

How I Can Help
Coping With Anxiety And Depression
If you’re dealing with a difficult life transition such as divorce, bereavement, or sudden career change we can work through it together. I work with people who suffer with anxiety and depression of most types and levels of severity. Together we can find relief from traumatic events and past experiences
Developing A Healthy Lifestyle
Healthy relationships with our bodies, other people, food and stress can all be difficult to address on our own. Through our sessions we will work to strengthen those relationships and create a new framework to manage current struggles and persistent problems.
Career Coaching
Stuck in a rut at your job? Doing great and want to maximize your opportunities? Looking to pursue a new passion? I can help you navigate your career path to help you grow into a new role or navigate change in the workplace. Together we can come up with a plan to make sure your work is fulfilling on multiple levels.
