About Martha
Her style is grounded in client-centered counseling. She listens first, then works with each person to set practical goals. That might include learning new coping skills, managing difficult emotions, or sorting out relationship and family concerns.
Martha also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different patterns of behavior. Solution-focused methods are part of her work too, so clients can identify small, concrete steps to test between sessions. When trauma is part of the picture she brings trauma-focused strategies into the conversation.
She commonly helps people with body image and eating concerns, caregiver stress, attachment or abandonment worries, and problems with impulsivity or substance use. She also supports those facing communication or commitment issues, divorce or separation, and family of origin struggles.
Martha aims to create a steady, practical space where people can practice new responses and track progress. To begin a match, people choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

Approaches and how they work online
Client-centered therapy puts the person’s priorities first and focuses on listening, empathy, and collaborative goal setting. It helps people who want a steady, respectful place to sort through feelings and choices.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches simple exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking and to build new habits, which can help with anxiety, depression, and impulsive behaviors.
Solution-focused therapy aims for small, doable steps that move a person toward their goals. It is useful when someone wants concrete changes to try between meetings rather than lengthy analysis.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods based on a client’s needs, goals, and preferences so the plan feels like a good fit.
Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists can help you decide how often to meet and which approach will best support your progress.
