About Tracy
Tracy Marotto is a New York psychologist (NY Psychologist 027186) with 12 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and significant life changes. Her work also addresses communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, panic attacks, social anxiety, and questions about life purpose.
She focuses on straightforward conversation and practical steps. Sessions are a place to name what feels most urgent and to try approaches that reduce distress between meetings. Tracy encourages clear goals and small experiments people can use in everyday life.
In therapy she pays attention to how fear and avoidance shape decisions. She helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck and then tests different ways of responding. That can include learning new ways to handle panic or practicing conversations that feel too hard now.
Tracy aims to make the work understandable and manageable. She listens for what matters most to each person and adjusts the pace when people feel overwhelmed. Progress is described as gradual change through steady effort rather than a quick fix.
Sessions are conducted in English and delivered from her New York practice. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How evidence-informed approaches are used online
Tracy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and reducing symptoms. Cognitive-style methods help people identify and test thoughts that feed anxiety or depression; these techniques focus on practical experiments and behavior changes to reduce distress in daily life.Exposure-based strategies are often used for panic symptoms and social anxiety. These approaches involve gradual, supported practice with feared situations or sensations so that avoidance decreases and confidence increases over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tracy collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts pace and techniques based on how someone responds, and decisions about which methods to try are made together.
