Nicholas Marocola Psychotherapy
About
I provide professional mental health counseling services for individuals suffering from a multitude of issues ranging from Stress, Anxieties (general/specific), Depression, PTSD/trauma, Marriage/Family, Bereavement and Addictions (substance abuse). I am also a certified Life/Mindfullness and Empowerment coach.
I love every aspect of this profession. I consider myself an empathetic therapist who takes a personal and many times emotional journey with the clients that I speak with. To be able to help my clients realize that they already have the physiological and psychological tools to overcome ANY obstacle in their lives is the greatest reward. My job is to help you get there.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Introductions would be the easiest and most efficient way to break the ice with a prospective client. This way, you get to know each other on a personal level where there could be open communication and feel more at ease to be able to break down emotional barriers. Once this has been established we can be transparent in all our conversations to help with resolving the clients issues.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been working in the mental health profession for many years and have worked as a LMHC in a medical capacity for over 10 years. I have my lectural and formal education from several universities (University of Phoenix and University of Michigan) where I have earned my Bachelors of Science in Psychology (concentration in Social Psychology) and my Masters of Science in Mental Health Counceling. I have worked with many people ranging in ages from 12 - 70 with a plethora of areas of mental health. I take pleasure in helping all those that need a non-biased approach to mental health.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
I currently do not take health insurances but have started the daunting task of requesting access to Medicare/Medicaid insurances. My rates are fair and mostly below the national standard. Mainly because my love for the individual supercedes monitary requirements. My base rates start around $95 per 50 minute session (live) or $85 per online (telehealth) session.
How did you get started in this business?
This was a personal journey for myself as well. I've always had the passion to help others but took me some time of living my life and going through some of my own mental health issues with anxiety/family/stress as well as depression in which I've had to conquer to see my life's purpose. It wasn't until a few years ago that it really affected my life and amplified my desire to help anyone that needs it. This person spent his entire life putting joy and laughter in others lives but no one realized the internal demons and struggles that he was battling which led to his suicide.. His name is Robin Williams.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I have worked with people with many different ailments or mental health concerns. From individuals with BPD/DID, children with anxieties/depression to couples seeking marriage related assistance. I have also helped with celebrities in relationship turmoil and everything in between.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I'm fond of every event and everyone I speak with.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
I would say that the best advice that I can give is to make sure that you pick a therapist that you feel you can work with and they can work with you. You have to have a connection for you to be able to efficiently open up to and reveal your "full" self too.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
They have to come to the realization that an issue or need exists. Also making sure that even after self-help methods are not working. They have to be able to "drop their guard" and be able to open up to someone that they trust and know will have not only sympathy for what they are going through, but also EMPATHY.. I live by this standard.
