Alex DePaoli, B.S.
Therapeutic Facilitator
Alex received her Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a concentration in clinical psychology and a minor in art therapy in the spring of 2025. She plans to attend a Master’s program in Clinical Mental Health Counseling to continue to provide individualized, empathetic, and evidence-based treatments that emphasize clients’ dignity and individuality.
As an undergraduate, Alex interned at SEC for two semesters and worked with SEC campers at Camp Kef for two summers. In 2025, Alex became a co-facilitator of the younger Camp Kef group, where she supported nine clients’ therapeutic journeys by providing behavioral interventions and aiding in the design and delivery of educational therapeutic concepts. Alex has an additional three years of experience as a Behavior Technician, working as a 1:1 for four clients and leading a Transitional and Adult Skills class. Additionally, Alex worked as a Research Assistant at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia studying school-based aggression in elementary students. She hopes to combine her research and her clinical work to promote independence and autonomy for children and adolescents.
Alex has worked with people from 4 to 35 with a variety of needs, and it is important to her to utilize each client’s unique strengths to implement strategies that best fit their goals. Her goal is to provide an open, welcoming environment where clients feel both supported and challenged to grow. Outside of SEC, Alex loves to paint, garden, read, and attend concerts.
