Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Mindfulness techniques help people calm their nervous system and stay present during hard moments. Sessions are shaped around a person’s goals.
Prof. Martinez focuses on clear, manageable steps rather than long lists of techniques. She helps people set realistic targets, practice new skills between appointments, and track small changes over time.
People often come for help with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and parenting stress, addictions, sleep problems, and work-related burnout. She also supports those facing grief, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and caregiver strain. The work may include short-term problem solving or longer work on deeper patterns.
Based in Florida, Prof. Martinez holds credentials as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and also lists MD. She offers sessions in English and Spanish and accepts international clients for online work.

Online support
Using practical approaches during online sessions
Prof. Martinez commonly uses client-centered work to create a space where the person’s priorities guide the sessions. That approach focuses on reflective listening and helping people name what matters most so goals become clear.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test different ways of responding. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to teach grounding practices and breathing exercises that can reduce overwhelm in the moment.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust plans if something isn’t working. The process is about finding what helps the individual make steady progress.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit short updates, coaching-style prompts, or people who prefer typing over talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
