Common concerns she addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, grief, and career questions. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment struggles, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, and life purpose questions. Her work draws on client-centered methods along with cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, emotionally focused ideas, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing.

She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English to make therapy accessible across different locations.
Approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding your experience and building a trusting relationship so you feel heard and guided. It helps when you need someone to listen and help you clarify what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them. It is often used for stress, anxiety, and mood concerns and includes practical exercises you can use between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers tools for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening communication. It is useful when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationships are repeatedly strained.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Martine will discuss goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust plans based on what helps. The first few sessions are often about finding the best match together.
Online therapy with Martine is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full sessions and visual cues, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging is helpful for ongoing brief support between appointments. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and different time zones.
