Background and approach
She also supports those coping with grief, parenting pressures, career shifts, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder. She pays attention to cultural and family background when those issues matter to the person. Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going.
She also uses Psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past that show up now. Internal Family Systems and Solution-Focused techniques help people find inner resources and build short-term plans for change. Martha aims for straightforward conversations that lead to real changes.
Sessions involve listening, asking clear questions, and trying tools together that fit each person’s life. She emphasizes small, doable steps and checks in about progress. Based in Florida, Martha offers services in English and accepts international clients.
She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, someone completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a time that fits their needs.
Approaches and how online sessions work
Martha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety and low mood. CBT focuses on practical tools and exercises that can be practiced between sessions to reduce symptoms and build coping skills.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person’s experience and priorities. In these sessions she listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people set goals that matter to them. Psychodynamic ideas are sometimes used to identify repeating patterns from past relationships that affect current behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the collaboration. Martha works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts plans over time and checks in about what is working and what needs to change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual connection for deeper conversations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support brief updates, coping reminders, and ongoing tracking between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life demands.
