Kathy I. Marshack, PHD

"I don't understand how Dr Marshack has so poor reviews. I approach her because she is an autism expert and I needed help with my anxiety and trauma. I couldn't be happier about that, my social anxiety has drastically changed, I understand myself and I am now able to communicate my needs. She change my life and the way I approach and connect with the world, and the most important thing, she has never make me think that there is anything wrong with being autistic, on the contrary she has help me to love it, embrace it and understand how it makes me different and special"

"This woman may many degrees but she’s very unprofessional, showing bias and inputting her own experiences and personal opinions in the process rather remaining neutral and facilitating progress. She doesn’t listen to her clients but instead talks over them and gives directives on how they process their trauma rather than giving tools to help them through it. She gaslights her clients and, at times outright mocked when she did not get the response she desired. She needs to retire. She has no business counseling anyone with trauma or doing any sort of family therapy in any form. I’m still considering reporting her to the board for her methods and actions. Deplorable."

"I am on the spectrum, and have worked with Dr Marshack for a long time now, both in person and via video sessions. She is very helpful, very knowledgeable, and ultimately very therapeutic. Working with her is a process, she is not there to hold your hand and make everything better. She will however hold your hand and guide you through the process of getting the help you and/or your loved ones need. There are a lot of unpleasant truths one must confront on the road to progress, and Dr Marshack will help you tackle them as you are ready. I question the validity of these negative reviews as they seem to be coming from people who do not work with her and do not understand how she works, or the compassion she shows during her process."

"From one psychologist to another, UK to USA. I have heard not heard or learnt about a more narcissistic, sociopathic human being as you. I am appalled about how you go about your work with little to no thought about the real world. I think you should have a long hard think about the accusations you make. However this is always time to reflect and change so I wish you luck with your future endeavours."

"Demonstrates an appalling lack of understanding of those on the autism spectrum, despite her purported expertise. Her comparison of those with Aspergers to narcissists suggests she has some personal work to do, as this smacks of a personal wound she is projecting upon others. These types of opinions put out into the public by so-called professionals are dangerous. As it is, those on the spectrum are more likely to be harmed by law enforcement due to a lack of understanding. I sincerely hope that people can look beyond her degrees and see that her perspective is flawed by some sort of personal issue. Not terribly professional and if a mental health practitioner cannot recognize and address these types of issues within themselves, they should not be treating others."
