About Juan
Juan Martell is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who aims to make therapy feel like a real conversation. He meets people where they are and uses plain language instead of clinical jargon. Juan is comfortable talking about anxiety and other common struggles in everyday terms.
He often helps people who are dealing with stress, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps to reduce overthinking, lower avoidance, and soften a harsh inner critic.
Background and approach
Juan also supports people wondering about life purpose and meaning. Juan draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to build useful skills and clarify what matters most. He pairs practical tools with work on thoughts and feelings and bigger questions about identity and direction.
Each meeting aims to leave the client with something concrete to try during the week. He brings a warm, direct style and keeps conversations straightforward. Juan writes children’s mental health books and creates accessible psychology content online, which influences his clear, down-to-earth way of explaining things.
He conducts sessions in English and Spanish. Juan has six years of clinical experience and holds the Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential, LMHC, in Florida. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session.
Evidence-based techniques for online care
Juan integrates cognitive behavioral techniques that focus on noticing thought patterns and testing behaviors, which helps reduce worry and the cycle of overthinking. He also uses acceptance-based work that teaches how to live with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings while still moving toward valued goals. These approaches are useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Juan treats therapy as a collaboration and will help clients choose methods that match their goals, needs, and personal style. He starts with practical steps and adjusts based on what helps most over time.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules. Video lets people use visual cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick updates, between-session support, or when writing helps people process thoughts. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while still working toward clearer thinking and steady progress.
