Angela DeGiaimo

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Last Updated 30+ days ago

I specialize in working with young and emerging adults (people in their 20s and 30s), as well as teens and their families. My passion lies in helping young people navigate life’s transitional phases. Many of my clients are working through anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, difficulty with focus or organization, or stress related to school and work. Others are making big life or career decisions, processing trauma or loss, working through painful childhoods, or exploring identity—whether around race, class, gender, or being part of the LGBTQIA2S+ community.

As a former foster parent and current adoptive parent, I bring a personal and informed perspective to the complexities of non-traditional and non-biologically based families.

I also have a particular focus on supporting individuals who’ve experienced difficult or traumatic childhoods. This includes—but isn’t limited to—survivors of childhood physical, sexual, or emotional abuse; those who grew up with parents struggling with mental health or substance use; people who were bullied; individuals who spent time in foster care; and anyone who faced significant instability or stress during their early years.

Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about helping you recognize your own strength, build tools that work for your life, and create space for insight, growth—and yes, even laughter. Whether it’s your first time in therapy or you’re giving it another try, I’m here to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move forward.

Let’s figure it out—together.
