“I have been a patient of Dr. Marotta for several years and highly recommend her services. What I appreciate most is her ability to listen and diagnose. Her extensive knowledge and clinical skills, and use of EMDR is second to none. Because of Dr. M, I have many tools and cognitive strategies that I use daily to help me manage my mental issues and succeed in life. She is honest, caring and has a direct-approach style that works.”

“Dr. Marotta has been a lifesaver for me. I have been seeing her for the past 7+ years and she has pulled me through more personal crises than I can count. From the very beginning it was clear she was very results-driven and was able to identify my issues and help me work through them one by one. It has always been obvious she is on my side, at the same time calling me out on issues that I needed to own. The skills she has taught me and continues to teach me, helps me navigate the issues I face in everyday life.

Not only is Dr. M an excellent therapist, she also is well-connected and always has a contact or knows how to connect me with a contact to deal with any side issues I may have that need outside assistance.

Over the years we have gone from once a week, to bi-weekly and now once a month. However, she is always available if anything crops up in-between, ready to talk me off the ledge.

Everyone should have a Dr. Marotta in their lives!”

“I have been a patient of Dr. Marotta’s since February 2020. I had lost my

husband of 46 years just 10 days before Christmas. He had suffered from

lung cancer for not quite a year.

I found that coping with widowhood was not an easy task. Dr. Marotta was a huge help and advised trying EMDR Therapy. This helped me with lessening some trauma.

At a time when COVID-19 was confining everyone, I was totally alone. I was also responsible for selling a car, a boat and a condo. Dr. Marotta really helped me find the courage to maneuver through these obstacles. The road has been long and continues to have glitches but with Dr. Marotta’s patience, I continue to thrive. I highly recommend her!”

"I have been working with Dr. Priscilla Marotta for several years. During that time, Dr. Marotta has provided a highly professional and supportive environment for me as a patient. She brings to therapy a successful blend of technical therapeutic skills and treatment plans that facilitate problem-solving. Throughout my therapy, Dr. Marotta has introduced and utilized the latest theories and developments in the field, such as the use of EMDR, which helps create a safe and secure structure. No topics are off-limits as we focus on problem-solving, not just conversation. In my personal course of therapy, I have always realized that Dr. Marotta is not only a highly skilled practitioner but also my advocate. My experience working with Dr. Marotta has enabled me to move forward with my life while solving many personal issues."

"Dr. Marotta has made a positive influence on my life’s journey. I began sessions with her 8 years ago when the balls I had to juggle seemed insurmountable; that is, personal trauma, a managerial job in the workforce, and caregiver to both aging parents. My initial consults were intensive. I found her to be on time, very calm, sincere, experienced, knowledgeable, easy to open up to, a great listener, focused, complimentary, and, sometimes, humorous. Through her sessions and intervention, I was able to transition from sessions twice per week; to one per week; to one every other week; now, to once per month. Dr. Marotta is prepared and ready (not fumbling and disconnected) for every session. Her clinical skills and adeptness have allowed me to say, “No,” and not feel guilty afterwards. And, also, to know it’s okay to receive as compared to giving all the time (healthy selfish). These were majorly empowering to me. Dr. Marotta is goal oriented and creates a yearly plan of goals for me to accomplish. Throughout the year, she focuses on those goal items. Never once has she let anything slip through the cracks. I’ve also found Dr. Marotta to have a wealth of knowledge or professional contacts / references in her repertoire. Throughout the year, “life” happens. When I brought those concerns to her attention, she listened intently, took excellent notes, and provided me with references. Dr. Marotta has been instrumental in assisting me to navigate those life changing issues. For example, when I was finally preparing to retire, she connected me with an excellent Financial Advisor. When I needed an Injury Attorney for my Mother, she referred me to one of the best. When I experienced a lien issue on heir property in another County, she had the answer. When I needed an Orthopedic doctor, she knew one of the very best doctors. This year, I was diagnosed with a serious illness. Dr. Marotta kept me calm, offered additional sessions as I needed them, and navigated me through the processes and treatments. Now, I am totally healed and can’t thank her enough for being my sounding board and ensuing I had a lot more “life” to live. Dr. Marotta is the absolute BEST!!!"

"I have engaged in treatment with Dr. Marotta at different points in my life. When I first started seeing her it was due to PTSD from a car accident, at only 19 years old at the time I had crippling anxiety and fear around being in cars. After one session of EMDR I noticed an immediate change and after several sessions my fear, and anxiety were gone - that’s when I became a life long advocate and practitioner of EMDR with her. Over the years I have had traumatic experiences one big one more recently in 2020 due to a chronic illness that gave me debilitating anxiety and panic attacks. Not only was I trying to cope with my new illness but coping with how to integrate in society & at work with a chronic illness. Not only did I struggle with physical symptoms of my illness, but the mental symptoms and symptoms of fear, sadness, and low worth due to my new diagnosed illness made it almost impossible to function. Working with her monthly with EMDR not only removed my anxiety, fear and panic, but gave me my confidence again, and reprogramed my thoughts to better accept and function with my illness. I can wholeheartedly say working diligently with her on this I am a completely new person and my fear, anxiety and feelings of low worth due to my illness are in the past! EMDR is life changing .. even things that you don’t realize or think is trauma actually is, and I use EMDR with her monthly for upkeep of my day to day stressors, and upkeep of my mental health and wellbeing. I highly recommend working with her."

"I first met Dr. Marotta about 14 years ago, at one of the lowest points of my life. Depressed, anxious in the extreme, and working my way up to having low self-esteem. There was no point to my life. I wasn't living, I was surviving, and just barely.

I took a seat in her office, where the tables held exquisite blown glass artwork and fresh flowers were in a vase on the side table. As I looked around, I had the feeling that this woman might actually "get" me, and I felt my first glimmer of hope in months. We went on to work together weekly for years, using EMDR and cognitive behavior modifications. I slowly began to live -- not just survive.

Dr. Marotta has the instincts and intuition of a true healer. She possesses an unshakable belief in the capacity of humans to heal their minds and souls, no matter how shredded they may be upon arrival. She is unfailingly warm, humorous and genuine. She was a North Star at a time when I couldn't even see the sky.

I know I'm gushing -- but I mean it from the heart. If anything in this testimony resonates with you, please consider a consultation. She can help you. I promise."
