Dr. Anthony Demaria, PHD

Helped me overcome anxiety and claustrophobia.

Dr. DeMaria helped me with some relationship problems I was having. He was warm, direct, and helped me overcome my difficulties.

I've had insecurities for years, and Dr. DeMaria helped me be more accepting. I still have work to do, but feel a lot better about myself.

I don't know what else to say other than I no longer wish to die. I sought therapy for that reason, but I never really thought it would be possible. Thank you!

I started treatment for issues in relationships that have been difficult to manage for years. Working with Anthony helped me make changes in how I see myself, and has allowed me to function better in friendships and in dating.

Dr. DeMaria was a good listener that also gave me useful skills to help me manage my anxiety.

Dr. DeMaria is not a doctor to work with if you want someone to nod along and make you feel better about your poor decision making. He can be incisive, and the emotions he forces you to grapple with can be painful, but I realize now that’s how progress happens. He’s not necessarily a fuzzy “oh, poor you” guy, but I didn’t want him to be—that approach had gotten me nowhere over the years. I’m deeply appreciative of the insight and coping strategies he provided me, and would recommend him to anyone who feels they are stuck on a hamster wheel with their current therapist. I feel better equipped to handle my fears and negative emotions thanks to our sessions.

I saw Dr. Anthony DeMaria for a few months. He was extremely invalidating. I went to therapy to heal. Going to therapy with him seemed to have the opposite effect. I dreaded having sessions with him. Avoid him if you can!!

I saw Dr. De Maria only a few times in 2017. I was referred to him by a psychiatrist. I found him to be extremely harsh and to have a predisposition to find personality disorders where none existed. I also found him to be disingenuous regarding his out of network status. As I found out when I submitted my bills for reimbursement, a provider cannot be both in network (that is, the hospital) and out of network at the same time. You are one or the other if you are seen in a therapist's office in the hospital. It is just wrong of Dr. De Maria to perpetrate this out of network identification.
