Amy Degirolamo, LPC. I am licensed in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware. For the last 15 years my work with clients has focused on personal issues of all kinds: depression, self-esteem, conflict resolution, better communication, adult children of alcoholics, parenting, anxiety, chronic illness, addictions, and sexual abuse. I specialize in adjustment issues and assisting clients take steps to get back to a place where they can overcome issues and move on for a better, healthier life. Many of my clients are going through a life transition such as a seperation, divorce or dealing with "failure to launch" issues.

Waitlist for new clients
Let’s face it...sometimes life can feel overwhelming and you might be wondering if therapy can help. Let me tell you a little bit about myself and you can determine if we might be a good match. I work with female adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, transitions, parenting issues and trauma. I believe that we each have many strengths within us, even if it doesn’t always feel that way, and that each of us is the expert of our own life and knows what we need to do to cope, heal and feel complete. I also know that sometimes those strengths and solutions can feel elusive and that’s where I can help.

My approach involves bringing change about from the inside out. We will work towards understanding how the problems that brought you here developed, what they mean, and the purpose that they serve. This approach goes beyond simply treating symptoms and strives to help you make changes that are deeply-rooted and long-lasting. It has been proven that the therapeutic relationship actually creates healthier connections in your brain. In younger children this deeper type of therapeutic change is often accomplished through therapeutic play. Play is the natural language of children and allows them to express their thoughts and feelings.

I offer therapy to unravel the fear of being a burden and embrace a life of simple authenticity. You could think of yourself as a chameleon. In your family, you sort of disappear into the roles people expect of you. In your relationships, you’re kind but sometimes that’s all you are—all there feels space for of you. You have clarity about yourself deep down, but you don’t feel clear on how to be yourself in a way that isn’t a burden on others or that isn’t selfish. So you stay kind. But you also stay unhappy. And you’re not sure if the people close to you notice, or if they notice, you’re not sure if they deep down really care.

Despite your best intentions and efforts, do you feel stuck in your personal life, intimate relationships, family relationships or workplace? You may be faced with challenges that are deeply rooted in your early life experiences, your primary attachments, in how you view the world, or due to misunderstanding between you and significant others. Challenges can arise during stressful life transitions, such as divorce or death of loved ones. But they can also arise from positive life experiences, such as marriage or the birth of a child. Left untreated, these challenges can grow into chronic problems that can corrode your sense of self and your relationships.

An ideal client for me is someone who has difficulty managing their emotions, engages in frequent negative thinking, and has trouble communicating their needs with family and friends. They want to decrease their anxious or depressive behaviors but have little knowledge of how to begin regulating their emotions.

I work with adults who want to boost their self-esteem, lower their stress and anxiety, and improve their communication skills in many different types of relationships.

Parenting Therapists

What does therapy for parenting look like?

Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?

When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?

Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?

Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
