Background and approach

He draws on client-centered work to build trust and to center each person’s goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test kinder, more accurate beliefs. Mindfulness techniques are offered to slow down strong emotions and improve sleep and concentration.

For people with trauma histories, Martin uses trauma-focused approaches that prioritize safety and pacing. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, skills are available for those managing intense emotions or problems with anger and relationships. The aim is practical skill-building to handle difficult moments.

Martin has worked in both community and inpatient settings, giving him experience with a wide range of life challenges. He emphasizes collaboration, plain language, and steady support while people work toward clearer routines, improved coping, and better day-to-day functioning.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Martin commonly combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working online. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping clients name their goals, which helps build trust even over video or chat. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and depression.

He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, skills when emotion regulation or anger is a problem. DBT teaches clear steps for managing strong feelings and improving interactions with others. These approaches are shared and adapted together so the client and therapist can decide which methods fit best for current goals.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options and adjust strategies based on a client’s needs, goals, and preferences. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay focused and useful.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical benefits. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever they are. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflections, or flexible scheduling. These formats make it easier to practice skills between sessions and keep momentum while working on anxiety and life changes.
