About Martha

Her style is calm and direct, focused on helping people take practical steps toward feeling better. She creates a space where clients can speak honestly without judgment.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on what matters to the client now and what small changes might lead to better days. Martha values collaboration and gentle challenge to help people notice patterns and make choices that fit their goals.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. Attachment-based ideas inform work on relationships and trust. Over five years of practice have included work with people facing grief, parenting strain, first responder stress, and multicultural or prejudice-related challenges.
She is attentive to adoption and foster care, fatherhood issues, and veteran and armed forces concerns when those topics arise in sessions.

Online session options
Approaches that shape online sessions
Many online sessions use Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reframe their stories. This approach makes space to notice the way life events are described and to try new, more helpful storylines for identity and relationships.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating and trust. It helps people understand how early connections influence current relationships and offers ways to build safer, more satisfying connections. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the person and their goals at the center, offering empathy and acceptance while clients lead the work.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about needs and preferences and try methods that fit those goals. Sessions are collaborative, and adjustments are made as progress and challenges become clear.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support quick reflections between appointments or ongoing connection in flexible ways.
