Getting to know James Martin
Welcome! I'm glad you're here. I know that reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported from the very beginning.
I have over 13 years of experience in behavioral health and residential treatment, including more than 10 years working in addiction recovery and nearly six years providing psychotherapy. I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and families facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship issues, grief, and life transitions.
Clients often describe me as compassionate, genuine, calm, and direct. I believe meaningful change happens when you feel safe enough to be honest and challenged enough to grow. My approach is collaborative and practical—I strive to help you better understand yourself while building the skills and confidence to create lasting change.
I draw from evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, EMDR, psychodynamic, and narrative therapy, tailoring treatment to your unique needs and goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Whether you're working to heal from past experiences, strengthen your relationships, overcome addiction, or simply feel more like yourself again, I'll meet you where you are and walk alongside you throughout the process. Together, we'll build on your strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change that supports the life you want to live.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
