Getting to know Joe Martin
It can be difficult and challenging for people to deal with various life struggles. Often, individuals need tools to manage challenges or may lack a support system to assist them. I have years of experience assisting others of all ages from numerous situations and life experiences, with respect and understanding in a non-judgmental manner. I graduated from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology. I then completed my Master's degree in Counseling at Amberton University in Garland, Texas. I spent several years working with children, adolescents, and families in residential treatment settings. I was originally licensed in Texas as a Licensed Professional Counselor until relocating to Missouri over 20 years ago, where I have been licensed since. During these years, I continued to work primarily with children, adolescents, and families in residential treatment, helping them transition back home. I have also been employed in outpatient counseling settings assisting all ages. In addition, I worked in an adult correctional setting with substance use disorder clients. I have been active as an advocate in the LGBTQ community and have worked in emergency shelters with homeless youth and adults. I was an elevated needs foster parent for nearly five years and have adopted one teenager. I strongly believe in empowering my clients and challenging them to explore all options for difficulties they are currently experiencing. I believe a positive, honest client-therapist relationship is necessary for positive change to occur. I am a passionate and empathetic therapist with strong counseling abilities and an understanding of interpersonal familial relationships. Through clinical experience, compassion, and empathy, I support and assist those willing to make a positive difference in their lives. I pride myself on providing a safe and supportive space to work side by side to overcome traumas and barriers.
