01About Alfred
Alfred Borrelli is a licensed counselor who focuses on practical, person-centered support. He brings a calm, steady style and 40 years of experience to sessions. He emphasizes the client’s strengths and helps people take concrete steps toward feeling better.
He helps with stress and anxiety by breaking problems into manageable parts. He supports people coping with addictions and the effects of trauma or abuse. He also works with grief, depression, sleep difficulties, anger, career concerns, bipolar disorder, and attention-deficit hyperactivity challenges.
Background and approach
His approach is straightforward. He sees clients as the experts on their own lives and asks questions that clarify what matters most. Sessions often include goal-setting, practical strategies, and time to process difficult memories and feelings.
Alfred uses methods that can help with traumatic memories and motivation to change. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and behavior. These tools are adapted to each person’s situation rather than applied as a one-size-fits-all plan.
Working with him typically means regular conversations aimed at reducing symptoms and improving daily routines. He accepts people across borders and runs sessions from New Jersey. He holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential and is also a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and he will explain what those mean for care when you connect.

How specific approaches work online
EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing helps people process distressing memories by pairing focused attention with guided stimulation. It can reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and the strong emotions tied to them, and it is often used for post-traumatic stress and lingering trauma reactions.Motivational Interviewing encourages people to find their own reasons for change. The therapist asks open questions and reflects what the person says to boost motivation for things like reducing substance use or making lifestyle changes.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend methods that fit. Plans can be adjusted over time based on what is or isn't helping.
Online therapy offers flexibility and fits many schedules. Video calls allow deeper, face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easy to send brief updates or check in between sessions. These formats help people keep therapy going from different locations and routines.
