Elizabeth Marmaras, PHD

"I met Elizabeth on the plane. She is an open person, so soon we were talking like old friends. When I learned her profession, I asked her to work with me, but she explained me that it would be unethical for her as I am a greek resident. However, she coached me as a friend and she was amazing! She was there and explained me what my fear is. Since that day, about a week ago, I feel stronger and I try more and more every day."

"I started seeing Dr Marmaras to help with my anxiety and depression, and she helped me understand and work through my acute issues in a matter of weeks. Only then did we start to grapple with the larger things that unconsciously guided my life. Through our work, I truly learned how to listen to myself and to respect, honor, and have confidence in myself. She helped me recognize the burdens I had been unknowingly bearing for so long, and, after working with her for about 9 months, I truly feel transformed in the way I relate to myself and those around me. I cannot recommend Dr Marmaras more highly for someone who is looking to understand and honor their truth"

"When we selected Dr Marmaras, we did so because of all the positive comments of how she had helped many. My goal was to mend my relationships with my adult daughters and wife. I stepped into family therapy not knowing what to expect. Dr Marmaras helped me understand the process and how to connect with and express my feelings and those of each family member. She helped me identify and understand behaviors and triggers and how to manage them and control my reactions. My family and I managed to repair our relationships substantially and understand each other better and we are much happier too! We now know it’s an ongoing process but getting on the right path is one of the most important steps one can take. We owe our improvement to Dr Marmaras and her/our persistence to meet every week for months. Being empathetic and compassionate definitely helped us welcome therapy and get the most out of it!"

"I've been a patient with Dr Marmaras for 8 months now. During this time I've been reminded of the importance of self love. I became a wife and mother and forgot all about me. Therapy in the African American community is not something that is promoted so I decided that in my journey I needed a therapist who was reliable , patient and compassionate.I am more patient and kinder to myself. My perspective Has shifted for the better and I'm understanding myself more and more. I look forward to the old and new exciting revelations that I'm learning about myself each and every session."

"Dr. Marmaras has been nothing shy of amazing in helping me on my journey to discover myself and how to live a more fulfilling life. She has helped me open up emotionally and to start allowing myself to explore vulnerability. She is never pushy and always allows me to move at my own pace. She poses questions and suggestions that allow me to reflect on what I’m feeling inside and explore it further. I recommend her to anyone who is seeking to talk to someone."
