About Alexander
Alexander Regalado is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with five years of professional experience. He is licensed in Colorado and works from New York. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and depression, along with related concerns such as codependency and intimacy-related issues.
Alexander structures sessions around practical talk and problem-solving. He uses straightforward conversation to identify patterns that keep someone stuck, such as people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or enabling behaviors around another person’s drinking or moods. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings, not just ideas discussed in the room.
His approach draws on client-centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, among other tools. That means he listens for what matters to each person, then works on thoughts, behaviors, and emotional regulation strategies that help in daily life. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing also appear when they fit the goal.
People who book time with him can expect direct, practical conversation about difficult topics like abandonment, attachment worries, control issues, or substance use. He also addresses work stress, sleep problems, and self-esteem concerns. Alexander aims to help clients build clearer boundaries and stronger decision habits.

How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people feel understood and clarifies their priorities before moving to skill work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches concrete steps to change unhelpful patterns. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and problem behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, which can help with impulsive responses and relationship conflicts.Finding the right mix of these methods is part of the process. Alexander collaborates with each person to choose which approaches to try based on goals, experiences, and what feels practical. He adjusts methods over time if something isn’t helping.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which online formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice skills between meetings in their everyday routines. Licensed professionals often use different approaches during remote sessions, and Alexander will discuss what will work best for each client during initial planning.
