Alexandria Ceravolo brings to Nest a deep commitment to holistic, relational care grounded in curiosity, compassion, and a lifelong interest in human resilience. Her path to becoming a therapist was shaped by early questions about how we heal and transform—and has since evolved into a multifaceted clinical practice focused on trauma recovery, addiction, relational wellness, and somatic integration. With a background in the creative arts and a foundation in social work, she draws from both science and soul to help clients reconnect with their authentic selves and break free from inherited patterns.

Over the past decade, Alexandria has supported clients across outpatient, hospital, and community-based settings. Before joining Nest, she served as Clinical Supervisor at a leading outpatient substance use program, where she redesigned the treatment curriculum to integrate mind-body-spirit approaches. She was also Assistant Program Director at the Center for Urban Community Services, where she worked with individuals and families navigating persistent mental illness and dual diagnoses. At Mount Sinai’s Women to Women program, she helped develop an eight-week therapy protocol for clients undergoing treatment for gynecological cancer. During the COVID-19 lockdown, she created and led a virtual group therapy series for parents focused on breaking intergenerational trauma cycles.

Clinically, Alexandria integrates EMDR, IFS-informed parts work, IFIO (Intimacy from the Inside Out), DBT, CBT, and Polyvagal Theory within an attachment-based, trauma-informed framework. Her areas of focus include developmental trauma, sexual compulsivity, intimacy issues, women’s health, chronic illness, codependency, anxiety, and depression. She also works with couples—including those in expansive or ethically non-monogamous relationships—supporting them in navigating reactive cycles, strengthening co-regulation, and deepening emotional safety and connection.

Known for her attuned presence and thoughtful curiosity, Alexandria supports clients across a range of identities and life stages, including young adults, couples, LGBTQIA individuals, and those who are neurodivergent. She also provides clinical supervision and mentorship to graduate-level students and early-career therapists.

Outside the therapy room, Alexandria finds grounding in scuba diving, breathwork, and meditation. Before becoming a clinician, she toured with musicians and worked in the music industry—experiences that deepened her appreciation for creativity, presence, and human connection. A New York-born Italian-American, she draws inspiration from her family roots, summers in her grandmother’s garden, and the healing power of food, music, and community.
