Getting to know Desirae Martinez

On the outside, most people would likely say you're doing okay. You manage responsibilities, show up for others, and keep life moving. Internally, it often feels heavier than it appears. Your mind doesn't slow down-you replay conversations, overanalyze decisions, and get caught in patterns that feel difficult to understand even to you. At times, anxiety feels constant or hard to quiet. Other times, there is shutdown, numbness, or low motivation that is difficult to explain. Stress builds over time, past experiences continue to shape present responses, and depression can show up as disconnection, fatigue, or a persistent sense of heaviness. Life transitions often intensify these experiences-changes in relationships, identity, work, or direction can feel destabilizing even when they are expected or positive. That's where I come in. I'm a trauma-informed psychotherapist (LPC) and the founder of Profound Minds Psychological Services. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families who are ready to move beyond surface-level understanding and begin shifting the deeper patterns that keep them stuck. My role is to help you make sense of what is happening beneath the surface and begin creating change that actually lasts. Many of the individuals I work with are capable, reflective, and self-aware, yet frustrated that insight alone has not been enough. In our work, we go beyond symptoms and begin identifying the emotional and relational patterns driving them. From there, we work to shift those patterns in a structured, realistic, and sustainable way. This is a space where you do not need to hold everything together or have the right words. You can show up as you are, and we will begin from there.
