My Approach to Therapy

I love my work and enjoy listening and helping my clients through their life difficulties. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is the most important part of counseling. My approach to counseling is warm, empathetic, respectful and honest. If you are experiencing conflicts or loss in family, relationships, and other personal areas of your life I would like to support you on your journey towards positive change. I utilize an individual approach that builds on, and recognizes, the strengths you already have and assist you to learn new ones. I am a trained trauma therapist. I offer individual, couples and group therapy sessions. Let me help bring Serenity back into your life.

How My Own Struggles Made Me a Better Therapist

My own struggles have helped me grow as a person and a therapist. We all experience pain or dysfunction during our lives. I realize that no one has the perfect life or perfect family. If someone tells you they do, they are not being honest! Painful situations led me on the path to become a therapist. Resiliency through personal struggles gave me passion to help others gain insight and help them make positive changes in their lives. My life experience has taught me that knowing when to ask for help is extremely important. I learned in Alanon that it is essential to "put the oxygen mask on yourself before you place it on someone else." My struggles have taught me to rely on inner strength, courage, finding a higher power, resiliency, and having a safe person to talk to. I care deeply as a therapist and want to help my clients find a resolution to their struggles. My motto is Never Never Never Give Up! Happiness is out there. Find your serenity and peace.

Groups I Work With

I offer phone and Telehealth sessions. Telehealth can be a safe and comfortable venue for counseling sessions. It's convenient not having to leave work or home for a session with your therapist. Grief and loss is a major trauma we all have to face at some point in our lives. The death of a loved one, including your pet, divorce, chronic illness, job loss, and more. Some of the symptoms you might experience includes, fear, emptiness, loneliness, overwhelming sadness. You do not have to face this alone. Counseling can help with compassion, understanding, resources and coping methods. I specialize in anxiety, depression and relationship issues. If you are feeling alone, stuck or hopeless please reach out. Remember that. grief and loss has no time frame. If you are told just get over it it’s apparent you are not being understood. I strive to be an empathetic, compassionate therapist that will assist you in your journey, I enjoy working with people of all ages. If you are planning to get married, or live together it is very beneficial to experience premarital counseling. I provide counseling for families that struggle with alcoholism and addiction. I am passionate about my work and enjoy working with clients to help you find your inner peace and happiness. There are many different types of trauma. It is possible for survivors of trauma to heal and live a productive peaceful life. As a social worker I believe there is a solution to any situation. Please reach out and see if we are a good fit. Best, Marty
