Amita Marks helped me so much through my depression and helped me understand life better. I also had severe anxiety and was always scared to talk to people and go to college. I almost thought of dropping out, but Amita helped me through all my ups and downs even when I didn’t feel like lt. Amita is a true hero to me and helped turn my life around.

"Amita Marks has been an incredible guiding light in my life ever since I started therapy with her two years ago. I completely credit her with helping me get through some of the most difficult times in my life and I’m so grateful for all the help she's given me. Amita is empathetic but also logical in helping me tackle my problems, and she’s provided me with great tools to cope with difficult situations on my own. I’ve become so much more empowered and self aware as a result of my sessions with her. In the past, I struggled to be completely honest with therapists due to the fear of being criticized or misunderstood, but Amita is so warm, understanding, and non judgemental. She creates a completely safe environment during her sessions where she is supportive and always builds me up no matter how much I am struggling at the moment. Thanks to her, I know that even in my darkest moments that I will get through them and that I have the strength to heal myself. I feel more confident and in control of the issues I face in life because she’s taught me how to unlearn negative thought patterns and break out of bad habits. I was at one of the lowest points in my life when I first started seeing her - I struggled with depression, anxiety, body dysmorphia, abusive family relationships, and various self destructive habits. She taught me how to use CBT to deal with intrusive and negative thought patterns and as a result, has significantly helped me re-wire these thought processes. Amita validates my feelings but also holds me accountable so that I am always moving forward. Even if I relapse or slide back into self destructive behaviors, she reminds me that these mistakes are part of the process, because you can learn and become more self aware from them. She recently encouraged me to start journaling, which has helped me identify triggers and slow down my impulsivity. I know that I will always face unexpected situations and curveballs in life, but thanks to Amita I feel like I have the tools to cope with whatever happens to me. Amita is an amazingly kind and intelligent person that I am so grateful for having in my life, I wish everyone in the world had access to a therapist like her! "

I’ve been a patient for over two years now and seeing Dr. Marks has completely changed my life. She has been a huge source of support and has really helped me work through my issues using CBT. Integrating these skills and new mental habits into my daily life has been a blessing. I now live a more balanced and peaceful life because of her help. 10/10 recommend.

I have been seeing Amita for 2 years now. I was in a bad place before I started seeing her. I was often feeling anxious and having panic attack. She used CBT to help me understand my anxiety and how to manage it. I am in a much better place now.

I have been seeing Dr Marks for seven years now and she helped me through things that I couldn’t have done myself. For example, she helped me overcome my huge case of anxiety. Another problem for me was that I had trouble communicating with my family members. She helped me step by step, session by session, and with guidance of how to express my feelings more appropriately. Dr. Marks is the BEST.

I am a seventeen year-old with depression and anxiety. I also have a unhealthy relationship with my parents. I felt alone and out of place but then I met Amita. She was open to anything I said and was very welcoming. She helped me overcome my anxiety and depression. She made me feel important and helped me build a strong relationship with my family. Dr. Marks is a life saver and great help.
