“Over a year ago, I was going through a series of life challenges. I was experiencing depression and panic attacks and decided to go to therapy, something I’ve avoided in the past. It normally takes me a while to open up and trust anyone. With Marnie I found myself discussing my life with a sense of comfort and trust as if I was talking to my best friend. Marnie Zigelman is genuine and caring with a no nonsense style who has made a difference in my life. I highly recommend Marnie Zigelman and I’m grateful for her helping me move forward in life.”
“I have known Marnie Zigelman for two years and she has made a tremendous difference in my mental health. Marnie is an amazing listener, asks insightful questions, and offers practical suggestions for coping with anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. By employing strategies suggested by Marnie, I have been able to curb emotional eating habits and sleep better. I have developed more confidence, both personally and professionally. Marnie has also helped me deal with grief and bereavement and has helped me to process overwhelming emotions so that they become manageable. I would recommend Marnie Zigelman to anyone— she is the most empathetic and astute therapist I have ever worked with. ”
“What I liked most about working with Marnie was how comfortable she made me feel right away. I always felt like she was really listening and really understanding me. She even did research on her own time about some of the activities I was involved in to better understand me. I felt like Marnie always gave 110% and truly cared for me. In my time working with Marnie, my self-confidence and self esteem increased. I was able to take better care of myself, be less hard on myself, and make positive changes in my life. Marnie Zigelman is fun, energetic, positive, and down-to-earth. I really enjoyed working with her, and she helped me a lot!”
“Talking with Marnie is always the highlight of my week. She is authentic, present, and supportive during sessions and has helped me tremendously through some very difficult times. I really value my time with Marnie Zigelman and am so happy to have her as my therapist!”
“When I started therapy with Marnie Zigelman I was grappling with the emotional reality of having a father who was transgender and how to best navigate that as well as a job that left me crying and panicking most days. I was anxious and miserable. Marnie was the first therapist I ever had who talked back. Prior to her, my therapists would sit and nod and “hmmm” in the right places, but I always felt adrift. What did they really think? What did what I just say mean? And then I started working with Marnie who is perfect at holding the line of casual and professional. She is honest and open, but never overshared. Like many therapists I have had before, she didn’t diagnose me as anything, because in my case a diagnosis would not have done anything to help me. Instead she worked through things with me and helped me fill my toolbox with exercises and knowledge. When I was panicking because I had to go home for Thanksgiving a month before I had to leave she talked me through the shame and anxiety around asking my General Practitioner for anxiety medicine. Because of Marnie assisting me in discovering my own strength and talking me through all of the lies I would tell myself, I am in a happy and healthy relationship of almost three years. I got a new job and then a promotion. I am on speaking terms with my father, and my relationships with my sister, her husband, and my mother have never been better. Marnie meets you at your level and challenges you to rise up to the next level, but never before you are ready and never without you knowing that she is right behind you in case you slip and fall.”
“I cannot stress enough how great it’s been to work with Marnie Zigelman. From our first, introductory session, she’s offered remarkable insights to issues that have been reoccurring obstacles in my life over the last few years. In our sessions, she creates a space where I feel comfortable and safe all while genuinely listening to me in a way that I feel completely heard and understood. There’s nothing I don’t think I could tell her. She’s very direct when delivering her analysis and offers actionable, real world takeaways that I can start implementing from the moment I leave her office. Marnie Zigelman has been great to work with and I look forward to continuing our partnership. ”
