When you find yourself questioning whether to seek support, I believe this is your system letting you know that old patterns, which were learned at some point to protect you in your past, are not letting you move into your future whole and well. These patterns can be set in motion from early experiences of development, traumatic experiences, transgenerational trauma, along with the ongoing experiences of oppression, both overt and subtle, in daily life that undermine your trust in your own internal resources. Let's empty the baggage and turn a painful past into a thriving future.

For too long, you've felt overwhelmed & burned out with what's happening in your life. You might be seeing it at home: you are feeling irritated with your family & don't feel good enough with your share of household responsibilities. Perhaps it’s at work: you can’t concentrate & it’s harder to keep up with all of your responsibilities like you used to. Maybe you are experiencing tension within your body & it feels so hard to relax. You are suffering & you are not sure how to get through it. No matter how these things are showing up for you, I am here to help you feel heard & to build the skills to get you through this!

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.

I work with adults and young adults who are exploring identity and meaning (e.g. “Who am I?”), navigating stressors related to school/work, facing anxiety or depression, navigating difficult family dynamics, processing relationship questions and/or seeking to live out their faith or values with authenticity. I am passionate about journeying with people as they discover more of who they are and find freedom to live a vital life of depth and meaning. I seek to bring warmth, openness, sincerity, and curiosity to counseling, creating a welcoming space for you to explore and become more fully who you are.

I have enjoyed clinical social work with adolescents and adults for about 25 years in a variety of settings. I will support your journey of self discovery and growth with curiosity and humility coupled with training and experience. Attachment theory, science, attention to the intersection of multiple identities with emphasis on the relationship between myself and clients grounds my practice. I believe healing occurs in relationships and requires compassion and curiosity. I create a warm, safe, supportive environment to unpack and explore your feelings, experiences and needs to create the live you want and deserve. LCSW available.

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.

Together, we will navigate through the frustrating, critical or painful patterns in your relationships. Especially the relationship you have with your self. People seek me out to learn how to nurture, connect, empathize and accept. Build the conflict resolution and validation skills that are powerful tools used to improve relationship dynamics. It simply does not need to be this hard, new ways to interact can elicit change. When emotional challenges create too great a struggle, therapy may help. We will discover positive and productive ways to successfully explore life and gain the wisdom to cope more effectively.

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.

From the outside, it would appear that you have it all figured out. School? Aced it. Prestigious job? Grabbed it. Life that others would drool over? Nailed it. You've got it all! But then, why do you still feel miserable all the time? It's like your brain is in perpetual crisis mode. "What's wrong with me?!" you internally scream at yourself. Your friends and family offer reassurance, but you can't shake this feeling that at any moment, this life that you've worked so hard for is about to come crashing down. You keep a smile plastered on your face, but inside you're on the verge of imploding. You can't keep this up for much longer.

Alyssa C. Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania who has been practicing since 2019. She obtained her Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Immaculata and also holds her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Saint Joseph's University. Alyssa approaches mental wellbeing from a holistic perspective, integrating aspects of healing the mind, body, and spirit.

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.
